LOS ANGELES – “Slumdog Millionaire” took the best-picture Academy Award and seven other Oscars on Sunday, including director for Danny Boyle, whose ghetto-to-glory story paralleled the film’s unlikely rise to Hollywood’s summit.

Doesn’t anyone see this as “explotative”?
Hollywood has the audacity to pluck a story out of human tragedy, celebrate itself, and move on.
Without so much as a mention of the cause of human poverty. IMHO the goofrrment. That systemically holds people in the slums with its taxes, laws, regulations, and corruption.
But then, that’s a Hollywood “liberal”.
Us, Classical Liberals of the pre-French Revolution, are horrified by the redefinition of “our label”.
Let those children “Eat Cake”.
Argh!
