Dorset Eye has been in conversation with Karin Hayes the director of the Sundance award winning film ‘We’re Not Broke!’ It is a documentary of how everyday people have exposed the lies that we are being told and that trillions of dollars that have been hidden to avoid taxation. This will be a must see film that reveals the cynical and dishonest nature of the big corporations and the governments (specifically the US administration) who are shielding them from their responsibilities and refusing to hold them to account. The international distributors are at present seeking a broadcaster in the UK but we will keep you updated when an agreement has been made.
America is in the grip of a societal economic panic. Lawmakers cry “We’re Broke!” as they slash budgets, lay off schoolteachers, police, and firefighters, crumbling our country’s social fabric and leaving many Americans scrambling to survive. Meanwhile, multibillion-dollar American corporations like Exxon, Google and Bank of America are making record profits. And while the deficit climbs and the…cuts go deeper, these corporations, with intimate ties to our political leaders, are concealing colossal profits overseas to avoid paying U.S. income tax.
WE’RE NOT BROKE is the story of how U.S. corporations have been able to hide over a trillion dollars from Uncle Sam, and how six fed-up Americans from across the country, take their frustration to the streets…and vow to make them pay.
