Of course it was predictable. It was the standard anti capitalist "oh no the evil military-industrial complex is flexing it's might against the poor ignorant native population". Otherwise, if you can ignore the indoctrination and message, good movie.

Because, if you don't read further into everything, people slip things in in the fine print (or subliminally). Watching that movie, you would say that the people ousting the natives are "evil", wouldn't you? Yes, I don't agree with that sort of tactic (lprowl, both our ancestors were subject to that sort of thing), but some of these movies try to slip a message into the plotline.

I look at everything with my own slant. A gun owning red blooded, military family American point of view.

Conservative views, not always republican views. I disagree with both parties on many issues, but I am forced to side with the republicans as the lesser of two evils. At least they won't screw with my guns.

No, the democrats are not the same as the communist party. Their goals are similar though, and members of the communist party of America are members of the current democrat administration. Also, if someone said "I am running for the Communist Party", very few people would vote for him.

The goals of today's Democrat Party:
Nationalized Healthcare
Redistribution of Wealth
Nationalized Industry
Destruction of All opposition and dissent.
These goals are similar to the promises of the majority of Socialist and Communist governments, such as The Bolshevik Party and The Nazi Party. Remember, Hitler ran for office on the promise of bringing Germany out of an economic downturn. He did just that and more. The Nazis also had extreme gun control and universal healthcare(of sorts). I am not saying Democrat=Communist I am saying that the Left wingers (such as communists and socialists) have latched on to the Democrat Party and have now assumed power and are trying to stamp out dissent through slander and defaming their opposition(for now). I am saying that The United States Government has become too large and all powerful, and has begun to act against the good of the United States and the Constitution.

in the last words of that paragraph of yours i agree that the us has gotten to powerful (being an anarchist i think any government (tribal is the exception) is too powerful) but any party (democrat, republican) are not what they used to be and are corrupt but one side says that the other is a communistic group while that side says the other side is ignorant and stupid (which both and the cable news that follows them (fox and msnbc) have proven to be both ignorant and stupid) just because one group has similar goals doesn't mean that they are the same party just one covering themselves up in a cover for votes

It's the closest analogy I can find. I would use one that is less radical if I could, but the closest thing to what they're doing is what I use. But like I said, with a corrupt and over powerful government, you must take the lesser of two evils or at least those who say they follow your ideals. Hence, I usually side with the Republican party. Personally, I wouldn't let any of these politicians look after my dogs. Maybe I'll run for president some day. Give the secret service a heart attack.

if both are evil we then should abolish both instead of going for the less evil even though to me the lesser of them would be the democrats
