IMHO The Corporation and the Zeitgeist movies are as mad as a box of hot frogs. The makers of those so called documentaries know literally next to nothing about the history of capitalism. They gloss over highly complex topics and pretend that long appreciated market principals are some manner of conspiracy theory.I won't go on, but specifically, from watching The Corporation you'd imagine a panglossian world of peace, harmony and stability before corporations came into existence. And the idea that Corporations only came into existence via a loophole in the law supposedly dedicated to helping black people is completely insane. "Doh! By golly those sneaky capitalists got through again! By Jove!". I mean, are you serious?Don't get me wrong. Capitalism is not a perfect system, I don't have rose tinted glasses, but their statements about it are ludicrously ignorant.If you want the big picture, you're going to have to read some books, because there *are* literally no good documentaries on Capitalism, I've scoured the internet and came up with zero.- The Birth of Plenty by William Bernstein- The Worldly Philosophers by Robert Heilbroner- Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds by Charles MacKay- The Ascent of Money by Niall FergusonThat selection is deliberately chosen to be non-biased as possible, if anything it's biased in the other direction, since only 1 of those authors is actually pro-capitalist (N.F). The others lean(ed) to the Left of the political spectrum. Also they are fantastically well written books besides being as accurate as it's reasonable to expect from any one individual.People like Naomi Klein and Chomsky are the worst source of information about the System, they are entirely caught up in a paradigm which is completely politically USA-centric and centered around the perceived 'issues of the day'. If you check out the references Chomsky uses, you'll quickly find that although he sounds smart, he is ridiculously blinkered, some of the most gregarious examples of intellectual cherry picking I've ever seen. He is not an economist, nor an historian, he's a linguist. Smarts from one field of science don't translate to the next. If you want some insightful critiques of capitalism, then you should watch Adam Curtis's documentaries (two of which are mentioned in the OP's post, namely the Century of the Self and the Power of Nightmares). I don't entirely agree with him either, but at least he's making a valiant attempt to figure out the System.Protip: if you want a good & proper mind-fuck, then do this:Watch a documentary called "Collapse", then immediately afterwards watch a documentary called "Transcendent Man". They are complete opposites, both are quite reasonable intellectually, and bring home that there is no one person with an answer to the future as you'll have ever before experienced.
