i guess it depends on your perspective for example the new movie " Sicko" I am sure there will be people who will malign him especially those who have health insurance who don't know what is like not to be covered
I can understand why he highlights what he does because I know what it is like not to be covered and to wonder how, if my son becomes ill, would a visit to the emergency room be paid. It happened and a 4 hour stay in the pediatric emergency room cost $1,069 and that was in 2004.
It is sad that for supposedly the most powerful industrial nation in the world, we rank 37th in terms of healthcare. Compare that to a 3rd world country on which we have had a 48 year embargo blocking medicines etc, and that country ranked 39th.
So based on a persons' point of reference unless there is the experience of what it is like not to have insurance and trying to pay for it on your own his movie might come across as half truths. I guess the 43 million estimated uninsured will probably say he is the voice of the people.

He is a blowhard but he does voice the opinions of the people-not all but some people. You cannot deny that the state of the health care system is a little disconcerting. Although if you have health coverage, I suppose you would not think so.

Michael Moore is so disgustingly biased, not to mention just plain disgusting. I don't love the phrase "America: love it or leave it". One of the wonderful things about this country is that we, the people, are able to change (many of) the things that we don't love. In Michael Moore's case, however, he and his anti-american propoganda just need to leave. I am embarrassed that he is a fellow American.

He has a true talent for making people squirm. It's pretty good entertainment really. Insurance companies and hospitals are great targets.

I can't stand him at all. His truth is the only truth.

What he says is irrelevant, Truth or lies. I like the way he presents his arguments.

I agree with you. I don't see why everyone's so against him.
