MICHAEL MOORE: Bill Maher Real Time HBO, Full Interview, Friday, May 13.



Full Interview. Mike and Bill discuss how Things Making Other Countries Great Were An ‘American Idea’, specifically progressive public education, celebrations like May Day started by labor advocates in Chicago, and more.
Nations in Europe have implemented beneficial social policies for healthcare, worker benefits, education systems, nutrition, child and elder care, and prison programs.
In Moore’s new movie, 'Where to Invade Next' he included his travels to other European countries to understand why prison recidivism and drug addiction, among other things, were so low. What he was told repeatedly was that the strategies implemented by other countries came from American Ideas. Moore's conclusion, then, is that for America to be great, it needs to start taking its own advice. Also briefly discussed- the devastating Flint water crisis, how to stop Trump, Moore taking care after a recent minor health issue.
