Moyers's folksy left populism is always engagingly told, though it never quite manages to identify the core dysfunctionality of capitalism at the root of the phenomena he observes.  Amusingly, Schopenhauer makes an appearance at the end to explain how true selflessness is possible–though as a friend said to me, if the basis of true compassion requires Schopenhauer's metaphysics, then we're really in trouble!  But if I may invoke another German philosopher of the 19th-century, lack of compassion and altruism isn't the problem; the problem is the economic system that demands the behavior that Moyers laments.
