    • Trivia
      The footage of President Franklin D. Roosevelt proposing a "Second Bill of Rights" was believed to be lost until Michael Moore's film crew rediscovered it in a South Carolina library in 2008.
    • Goofs
      The film depicts a boarded-up house in Bellington, Washington. There is no such city in the state of Washington; it likely meant to say Bellingham, Washington.
