Michael Caine on Socialism

Caine's new new vigilante movie “Harry Brown” is getting a lot of flack on the left. The interview mainly goes after Caine for that movie, but here is an interesting quote:

AVC: It has drawn criticism for presenting what some have called a “Daily Mail take” on things—that it’s tabloid fear-mongering.

MC: That was exactly the reaction. Because one of the things is that if you’re a Socialist newspaper, well, the Socialists have been in power for 12 years, and these are the very poorest people in England, and this is what’s happened to them. So you’ve got to say it’s a load of crap. [Laughs.] . . .
