Just saw the movie last night. The most disturbing part was the lady who was the Medical Director for that insurance company saying that she caused the death of so many people by denying claims based on technicalities etc...Shame......
No, i dont think Michael Moore showed the WHOLE truth about it all (like the high income tax rate of Canadians to pay for socilaized healthcare) but my goodness- we dump people who cannot pay hospital bills off on the street in front of homeless shelters on skid row?!?!?! .....And how is that $50 million for the volunteers that worked at ground zero being allocated??? The people in the movie didnt see a dime of it and they were clearly in need...And WTF? Prisoners of war- the same people who want all Americans dead (AND tried to kill a significant amount of us on 9/11)- are getting "top notch" medical treatment at Guatanamo Bay??? Thats just messed up! Your thoughts?

The whole thing is really really f'd up. I still can't figure out for the life of me how a country with as many resources as we have doesn't manage to have a semblance of a health care program for everyone.
Nothing breeds anger and discontent more than throwing people off to the side because they don't fit the "norm".

Sorry, but my wife was in the hospital 3 weeks ago and her roommate was obviously homeless and unable to pay. You've just given me one more reason not to take mikey's "documentaries" seriously.
