Brad Pitt on Bill Maher Show
Brad Pitt may seem like a well intentioned guy, but it’s important to remember that he owns a movie company that makes his films, in partnership with bigger movie studios.
Pitt did an interview with Bill Maher where Pitt says communist government run countries are perfectly okay. When statements like this come out of an actor’s mouth it’s important to remind yourself that you are listening to an actor, who has little or no credible experience, or education, to base their comments on. Mostly, it is the experience the actor has working on a movie set in a communist country, where the government will move mountains as long as the government officials get big enough bribes. Because communist governments have such absolute control, the corruption is absolute, following the principal that absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Although Pitt tries to appeal to the juvenile mindset that most college kids have before getting a real world education in adulthood, which happens only if they have good and bad times, Pitt really has an ulterior motive. Like most in Hollywood, Pitt would love nothing more than to see the United States a socialist country, because his movie company could really make big bucks, as long as government officials received big enough bribes. Right now, with regulations, and other laws, Pitt makes some movies outside the United States to save money. In New Orleans Pitt’s company accepted something like $100 million from the state government to shoot Benjamin Button there. That money should have gone to rebuilding New Orleans, but it went to Pitt’s company instead, because the corrupt government in place there fit Pitt’s concept of a good government. In return Pitt’s Make It Right organization has built 15 homes with donated money.
I may like Pitt as an actor, but like most actors, I would prefer Pitt not speak unless reading from a script. I’ve also stopped trusting what Pitt says is honest, because it has become clear to me that he is trying to manipulate political opinion to further his own movie company’s profits. Pitt is a hypocrite, which is hard to say about someone I like so much as an actor, but that is reality.

yeah HG you are soooo wrong this time,
BRAD DID NOT SAY SOCIALIST COUNTRY IS GREAT. RATHER, what he said was that ”he has been to one himself….. and that WE [ refering to america] are great. ”
perhaps next time, before you jump the gun and start condemning someone, making baseless accusations, you should do what BRAD suggested, ”in a democratic society, one should gather all facts and make an informed decision, which in your case, would prob be informed statements.”
I stand corrected. I thought Brad said communist countries “were fine … worked great,” but after listening again he said “we’re fine … we’re great.” That, of course, changes my opinion of Brad’s comments. Thank you for pointing out my error. I feel better now that I don’t have to be disappointed in Brad.
Did you listen to the interview or just repeat something someone told you…he did not say that…he was speaking about socialist countries and that the US is ok in comparison. “we are doing ok”…listen to the words before you report something so totally wrong.
