Fox has an awful habit of purposely misreading things to provide the best story. Though I have not seen the Muppets movie, would it be fair to say that the movie was more focused on saying "dedicating your life to greed to the point of it being the only force in your life" was a bad thing rather than all of business being a bad thing? This is a very big distinction.
Second of all, "brainwashing" is never the right word. The Muppets are presenting the view of the writers, if that (more likely, they just wanted the basic, greedy antagonist more than trying to make a message.) It's not propaganda, Fox. It's entertainment. Everything from "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly" to "Twilight" presents some form of view or message. It's up to the parents or the child him/herself to decide whether they want to follow what the Muppets are saying.
Finally, I really don't think the point they are presenting is necessarily communism, and if it was, kids would obviously not grasp that. If anything, it's presenting the "don't be an obnoxious jerk" theory.

they skullfucked the economy into submission.
There were many other factors involved, including consumer mistakes, bad loans, and short-sidedness on all sides.
