Week 9
9) Summary of Where to Invade Next [Category: Where to Invade Next, Summary]: Please complete the following:
Summary In the documentary Where to Invade Next, Michael Moore "invaded" Italy, France, Finland, Slovenia, Germany, Portugal, Norway, Tunisia, and Iceland. When he went to every country he decided to steal their ideas, and plant the american flag in every country after he stole their ideas. Italy When Michael Moore decided to invade Italy he thought that we should steal their idea of two hour lunch breaks, and spending time with our families. Italians are also entitled to four weeks of vacation. France When Michael Moore invaded France he decided to Focus on the school lunches and how they received a much more nutritious and appetizing lunch during school hours for a cheaper price than Americans. The people of France also have a lower teenage pregnancy rate than Americans because they do not believe in teaching abstinence. Finland While in Finland Michael decided to steal the idea of no homework, and shorter school days along with no using multiple choice questions in order to achieve having the best schooling system in the world. In Finland all schools perform at the same level and receive the same education there is no "shopping for school" in Finland. Slovenia Slovenia provides free schooling for everyone, even foreigners. This allows students to graduate from school with out having to worry about being in debt, it allows everyone to prosper and live a more enjoyable life. Germany When Michael invaded Germany I believe this is where he found the most valuable policies. In Germany the middle class is a thriving. "work is work, when work is over it's over" This allows their people to work the 36 hour weeks and when their work week is over they do not have to worry about work. It is actually illegal to contact someone on vacation, and during off-work hours in Germany. Portugal While I personally don't believe this idea should be stolen Michael Moore believed that Portugal has a lot to offer with the legalization of all drugs such as pills, heroin, cocaine, and any other drugs that a person desires. Norway While I personally don't believe this idea either should be stolen Michael Moore believed that Norway has a great prison system where regardless the significance of the crime a person will not receive the death penalty and that they will not serve more than a 21 sentence. Tunisia While invading Tunisia Michael Moore was surprised to see that Tunisia offer free birth control to everyone, including iud, condoms, pills, and even abortion. he was also informed on how the dictatorship was over thrown and then the next government "stepped down" after denying women the right to vote. Iceland After invading Iceland Michael Moore found out that, Iceland has a forced diversity workforce, where you have quotas in your work force, where it must be a no more than 60% of one sex in the workforce. I am not a fan of quotas because it forces people who aren't always the most eligible to get the job anyway and is completely unfair to the person more eligible for the job.
