Michael Moore has become America's most successful documentary filmmaker chronicling the lives of the poor, unemployed and uninsured.

He's also become very rich in the process, and among other things, that's afforded him a stunning 10,000 sq. ft. mansion on Michigan's Torch Lake.

The conservative website The Michigan View discovered and photographed the fit-for-a-movie star estate.

The house Moore and his wife Kathleen Glynn originally bought was 2,500 sq. ft.  The couple then purchased two adjoining properties and expanded that humble summer cottage to the current size.

The Capitalism: A Love Story and Sicko director is not the only Hollywood personality with a large summer home in the state's lake region.  Madonna, Tim Allen and Bruce Willis are also property owners, The Michigan View reports.

The word "earned" can be a dubious word.

I don't think any human needs a 10,000 sq ft home. Sorry, but that's just greed and waste.

The BIG difference is that he didn't lay off thousands and thousands of people and get only hundreds to do the same work. He didn't make his money at the sacrifice and disposal of others.

That's because he doesn't employee anyone. Do you think he actually shared the profits from his films with the people he profiled? Nope. He paid them a flat fee for their stories and kept the millions for himself.
