  • Thats just SICK, they're guilty of wanting to Live??

    Cast the fucking current government into the flames.

    I've never considered the US as the Leading country of the world, quite the opposite.

    A country that's on its way of forgetting it's own people can't be called a "Country".

    A Country is its People, Without People, There is no Country.

    Forgetting your People, is forgetting your Country.

  • Typical, US Hypocrisy not happy with isolating and making poor Cuban people poorer by spitting out their dummies and refusing to trade with them, now they want to punish ill Ignored Heroes, no wonder half the World hated that Administartion.

  • erm... bush IS a buffoon

  • He's a fucking Dictator in disguise.

  • Fining people for trying to get adequate health care in Cuba.

    Makes perfect sense, I guess? Not really.

  • uk isnt reli tht free a country , we are the most watched nation in the world

  • Michael Moore is a hero. American people are fooled by there evil govt , if the american govt does not give a damn about its ppl it aint gona give adamn others, its a ripp off state, god bless the quenn, uk

  • Hey if America is the land of the free how come they tell you where you are allowed to go and where you are not? Don't think there are any restrictions on me like that in UK, maybe you guys aren't as free as you think you are......scary!

  • There's a difference. The US has a trade embargo to put Cuba essentially in an economic choke hold. I'm against this, but it doesn't mean we are not free. And yes there are restrictions against you in the UK, just none of them have affected your life in a strong enough manner to bring it to your attention.

  • Not travel ones. I will say though that even though I have Family in USA I will never travel there because you have to give your fingerprints at a US airport to get in. I have nothing to hide but I resent being treated like a criminal. I can't think of any Country I am not allowed to travel to if I so wish UK government does not dictate to it's people although other countries have the right to refuse me a visa. As far as I am aware I am able to go wherever I like.

  • Now that is a completely valid reasoning to not go to America. I agree that our security measures are very high compared to Britain's (I would know I've traveled there before), but you surely understand why it is that we are like that. We are a strict people on many levels, but we are not the 1984-esque society many make us out to be.

  • @beltanebabe55 Your Right! The liberal socialists are now wanting to controll our health care and place limits on free speech. We are becoming more like the U.K.

  • @TeaParty912 LMAO you would rather have your healthcare controlled by some fat bastard Insurance ceo who has his mind on profit? I see the fuoride in your water and Aspartame in your food is working then. The NHS in UK has saved my Son's life AND his Son's also. If my Grandson had been born in USA he would be dead...he is 9 years old and very happy. Every system has it's flaws but the UK's NHS will never be got rid of because we would revolt if they tried it. You are just scared of change.

  • @beltanebabe55 Published by the BBC- The US, Australia, Canada, France and Japan had the highest five-year [cancer] survival rates, while Algeria had the worst, Lancet Oncology reported. The UK fared pretty poorly, trailing most of its western European neighbours. NOW I SEE YOUR GOV. LOOKING TO DISMATLE the NHS. Germany is ditching it's socialszed sytem. Sounds like you've spawned a family of social dependents!

  • @TeaParty912 Yeh a baby born at 24 weeks gestation weighing 1Lb 9 ounces shouldn't be saved unless it can pay should he? You are sick healthcare is a human right and should have nothing to do with profit and everything to do with the care of the Human person who needs it. Yes our system isn't perfect but at least people don't die because some bastard disallows payment because they are "To young to have cervical cancer" That my friend happened to a young girl of 23 in YOUR wonderful sad country.

  • @TeaParty912 Oh and our Gov is not even thinking about destroying our NHS they would never get away with it. How dare you say that about my family for all you know my Son is a Doctor. Most of the Doctors here love our NHS because it means they can treat a person regardless. Anyone who wants to can still get Bupa cover or go private if they want. Having experienced both I would choose the NHS every time. I do know what I am talking about I am a member of the UCLH Foundation Trust. We have choice.

  • @TeaParty912 So Social health care limits your free speech.

    Is It better that the insurance company can deny you health care?, how is that freedom? and not controlling your life?

  • Whats interesting is that he didn't purchase anything from Cuba. MEDICAL CARE is FREE there you ignorant BITCH!

  • I seem to remember that they bought asthma inhalors for 50 cents each...that are about $120 in US and about £27 in Uk.....good grief are US citizens being ripped off or what? Do you think thats why they don't want you to go to cuba and spend money? After all those poor little drug companies have to make a buck somehow and they wouldn't want you to know how cheap things are in the rest of the world would they? Michael Moore is a hero. American people should stand up for the right to be free.

  • Hey doodoobaby992 I don't know if you were referring to me in your comment but if you would like to watch the Sicko film you will find that they bought asthma inhalors for one of the people in it, so maybe medical care is free but drugs aren't....even so none of it is free in US, so that makes Cuba a country that cares for it's people more than the so called democracy in USA. By the way if you were directing your comment at me I am neither ignorant or a bitch. Are you?

  • Nope...you got it wrong....I actually wasn't referring to any of you but the news lady...she said how "it is illegal for US citizens to purchase ANYTHING from Cuba even medical care" not knowing that medical care is free in Cuba...and yes I know he bought some medicine and I watched the movie but I totally skip that when I was writing a comment so sorry if you all got me wrong...either tho I said how only "MEDICAL CARE IS FREE"...btw news lady is just reading...I should be angry at who wrote it!

  • whatttttttttttttt?/???

    It's a documentary I defend his right to this documentary

  • at least those rescue workers got the medical attention they deserved in cuba what happened when they tried to get medical attention here they got denied how could they treat 9/11 rescue workers this way

  • Go Michael Moore. Sicko was the best movie :)

  • The World Health Organization's ranking of the world's healthcare systems revealed that France was no:1.

    It's no wonder because 40% of the French people use Homeopathy.

    The French are the highest consumers of Homeopathy in the world.

    The U.S.'s flawed healthcare system which is predominantly Allopathy, ranked at no.35 way below 3rd world countries such as Colombia, Chile, Dominica, Costa Rica and Singapore.

  • Singapore is anything but a third world country dude.

  • lol I have lived here in Singapore all my life and I have to agree! Although technically Singapore is still a third world country under the UN.

  • our counntry has the lowest crime rate in the world .atleast thats what they say.

    i believe so,try to get a gun in our country ,its mission impossible.

    so do the math.

    police and military needs to be in your own country ,what if a third party attacks you cause they had enough of you or irak.?

  • i mean your goverment and media are making you bellieve the war is needed for your savety.there hasnt been a attack of terror since 911 7 years ago.. while american people are murdered and raped every day in the u.s.(look up the year statistics) because theres lack of surveilence on the streets. but still bush thinks its important to get control in irak????????? duh makes sense

  • lol every country builds high tech weapons that cause mass destruction.its modern politics bush your behind facts.

    micheal moore is wright bush should stay at kindergarden schools reading my pet goat.

  • bush can read?

  • he bush we dutch build patriot rockets for you and parts of electtronics the jsf fighter both can carry nuke heads so i guess its time you invade us dutch and then we dutch ask the french to invade yu together with the russians because you have our weapons of mass destruction. but whos gonna invade russia and the french .

    china??? damn china has mass destruction weapons too .dilemma dilemma.

  • Moore portrayed GWB as a baffoon?! How? By showing footage lol!! So he was a news reporter, sue him for informing us? USA the country of the free! Free to follow orders or else.

  • Fuck yeah Michael Moore! No matter what he says or does, you've to admire the balls that guy has. Whether you agree or not, I don't see a lot of people standing up to that kind of pressure.

  • and another thing...about farenheit 9/11, there were some absolutely solid messages in that movie - 1) there were no grounds to attack iraq 2) the stupidity of the climate of fear following 9/11, to name but two. the fact that conservatives attack moore so, just shows their gross insecurities on these matters. oh, and george bush IS a buffoon!

  • ha, as if they weren't just trying to distract everyone from the message of the movie - as in, US healthcare is good, but the system is just shite!

  • he could be charged $1M!!!! but child molestors, drug dealers, rapist, murders can get off a smaller price. US Is messed up to the fullest. LEAVE THE ISLANDS!!!

  • Sorry for that but Usa is a sick Country ;permission needed for travel to Cuba, buying things in pharmacy .So if I if Us citizen had terrible accident there should A-die ,B-go back to Usa and risking to die(because immediate action was necessary) and paying a lot of money if he barely survived and maybe die after ,C -be treated for free and LIVE!!!

  • This was in response to carRamRod04 post a couple of months ago..

  • If fined 1 million dollars I wonder where the money will go...weapons research?

  • What kind of pathetic country tells it's citizens what countries they can and cannot travel to? I thought the United States was supposed to be "the land of the free". I'm sure glad I don't live in the USA.

  • @thechriscorr Me Too!

  • @thechriscorr its called an embargo and cuba put the embargo on america as did america put it on cuba because of communism stupid ass

  • no iraq isn't a paradise of peace but the war was not only a cover-up for USA, Britain's (etc) mistake PLUS those lovely pound/dollar signs in the eyes of our political leaders we have today.

  • Michael Moore is great! US government tries to bring him down

  • Looks like socialized healthcare systems have retained earnings just like private companies. And they obtain those profits by denying care.

    timesonline(dot)co(dot)uk/tol/­news/politics/article3479152(d­ot)ece

  • I could soon literally be on the street because of health care costs. I've paid in massive amounts of money, both to insurance and taxes. Once you get a 'catastrophic illness', you will find that you still end up bankrupting yourself with the insurance companies 'help'. Watch this movie. I am not alone. It is a crisis. Most Americans are so selfish and self-centered. Wait till it happens to one of them.

  • "Most Americans are so selfish and self-centered"

    Utter nonsense. Completely subjective emotional drivel.

    2hotinaz: Do you give up 90% of your income to poor African children. If you don't, how selfish and self-centered of you. You could live on 10% of your income and still have it better than many Africans.

  • You are speaking rubbish! Generalisations I don't agree with, but this person is telling you that the system is terrible. That they could be homeless and you respond with Africa?!. Of course we need to help poorer countries, but by keeping Health insurance with a monopoly of not just American health but dictating the prices and what's available on the world's markets then that's denying not just Americans but those Africans dying from diseases such as AIDs medical care!

  • ***Americans fight for your freedom!!!***

    You have right to free medicine. The real Democracy is when the people rule there country.

  • "Americans fight for your freedom!!! You have a right to free medicine"

    Lol, there is no such thing as "free" medicine. And its quite ironic that you don't realize that coerced collectivization strips you of your freedoms.

  • you sir, are a moron

    so you're actually saying giving everyone free health care will make you evil because, you know, it strips you out of your freedoms somehow? yea, cool i mean, i'd prefer to live with "free socialized medicine" than die because it's a "freedom" they don't want to take away

    btw im not even american but i can see why everyone mocks you

  • Jajaja Moore rulz, in latinoamerica we have the best doctors ever... and they only think in us... remember this word "us"! Michael Moore join at La Raza. We love yours movies. And kick bush´s ass again. VIVA LA RAZA

  • in US people become doctors to make money whereas in other countries people become doctors to help people and be respected. "WE" thinking vs "ME" thinking, "Freedom" vs "Illusion of freedom"

  • So I should buy you health insurance? Please tell me why I should do that when

    It's hard enough for me to make ends meet. I can't be worrying about supporting you and your problems too. I don't see you buying me anything when I need it. Where's my helping hand?

  • u r paying for other ppl's fire protection also, and police, also library, so why dont u refuse paying for other ppl's protection against terrorists and house fires?? can u do that? No, so why not health insurance, its gonna in ur taxes its not like u gonna pay for individuals u pay for urself others and ur family

  • So doctors should make as much as a fireman or a policeman or a librarian? Do you have any clue as to how much it would cost everyone? There is already a huge deficit. And you want government budgets to dictate the amount of care you get? If you need a liver transplant but it's not in the government's budget for the year-guess what you're not getting it. It is far cheaper to pay for everyone's civil services than it is for everyone's healthcare. Should we also pay for everoyne's food too?

  • doctors get paid well in those countries that have universal health care, they manage to do it so just cuz they r not in war with other coutnries with some bullshit excuses to go to war, so if u stop war and send all that war money to other expenses u can take care of the whole nation of 300 million

  • It's always the same thing with you people. "Stop the war and spend money on healthcare." Ok. Stop the war, fine, let's do it. But that will still not pay for Universal Healthcare. They will find something else to spend it on...... and it won't be you... trust me.

  • Have you even watched this movie? If you did, you would realise that you wouldn't have anything to worry about. You would watch it in action in England, France, Canada and even Cuba. He interviews 'average' citisens and asks them how they feel about paying for health care for others. Just watch the movie.

  • "He interviews average citizens"

    Yeah like a French couple that make 96k Euro a year. If you believe that was an average couple you are oblivious of the median French household income. Go check it on EUROSTATs webpage for yourself. It isn't anywhere near 96k.

  • In our country it's the people who make the most money who are most opposed to a national health care plan. Not all of the people he interviewed were in that bracket. The point is, none of them, rich or middle class objects to paying in to the health care system. They believe it is a good thing for their countries, and support it wholeheartedly. BTW, how rich were the Cubans, the only ones who would help the 9-11 rescuers?

  • Then make national healthcare purely voluntary. If the rich "support it wholehartedly" there is no need to coerce them to pay exorbitant prices for their health inusrance.

    And Cubans don't know what it is like to be rich, because that is the way communism works. Make everyone equally poor (unless of course you are in the political class).

  • Isn't it sad that in a country with communism and brutal dictatorship, the people STILL get better healthcare than the heroes of america?

    You aren't free, you are abandoned as an american.

  • With average citizen he means what any citizen in France gets for free from the state, regardless of their income.

  • if our government runs health care like they run AMTRACK, we are in big trouble !!

  • Any of you tools that are for socialized healthcare--ask yourself if you want the government to employ you AND THEN you take a 50% PAY CUT. If you said no to either, now you know why doctors do not want this nonsense here.  You go to med school for 200 THOUSAND DOLLARS, you spend 12 years in grueling school and deal with crazy people and then come back and spew your BS. And if you said yes, I feel really sorry for you.

  • Well, I'm so sorry that doctors may only be able to afford one Mercedes-Benz, instead of two... That's really sad.

    Why should MILLIONS of destitute people be unable to attain healthcare, just so doctors and insurance companies and drug manufacturers can keep their fat profits?

  • Why should people pay for Windows when Bill Gates is the richest man in the world? Shouldn't it be free?

    Your logic is foolish.

  • I'm not disputing that people should be PAID for their work. Bill Gates puts out a very useful product, and rightly so, he is rich for it. But if people don't have the latest version of Windows, they're not going to get sick and die. It's that simple. Health care is something EVRERYONE needs.

  • Ok, so EVERYONE needs food to live, right? How dare big supermarket execs make millions of dollars on food???

    And how dare farmers expect a profit on growing crops? Shouldn't food be free? People die without food right?

    So shouldn't food be socialized?

  • How can you even begin to compare things like this? Although it is true that supermarket execs, the big ones, should give something back. However, the farmers are among those who NEED free healthcare, as they make little money.

  • So food should be socialized in your eyes?

    What else should be socialized? Everyone needs water too, how about people shouldn't have to pay water bills?

    How about electricity? How dare electric companies charge?

    Why do you think doctors should make less money? Should YOU make less money for your job too?

  • You make absolutely no sense whatsoever. Health care is the issue here. I didn't say anything about anything being socialised, I do believe that health care should be a right of all Americans. Sorry you have no conscience. You are one of those who will compare apples to oranges.

  • I'm trying to illustrate a point, sorry you don't understand. If healthcare is a right is food a right? What about water?  Why should anyone have to pay for any of these "rights?" People should just go to the supermarket and get your food bill paid by taxes by that logic. Healthcare is a service and a DIFFICULT one at that. Doctors and nurses deserve to make a living, too, and not have to take a pay cut by working for the government.

  • Let's use the farmers, which you brought up, as an example. They work their 'tails' off, and have no insurance, since they work for themselves, and don't make enough money to afford it. What would you ask them to do when they're ill. Lay down and die?

  • This was a response to wtfomfg27, it was posted out of order, as per usual here!!

  • They can buy insurance in the private market for a couple of hundred a month. And even if they didn't want to buy insurance, they can pay for the treatment out of pocket (or via credit.) Even better,they could do a little pre-planning by having a health savings account. There are plenty of ways to do it. Nobody "NEEDS" insurance.

  • It must be wonderful to be rich enough not to worry about it. Insurance costs over $800 a month, and how much do you think something like cancer costs? You have no heart at all. Believe me, I KNOW how much insurance costs, you can't afford it, but you can't afford NOT to have it.

  • Again, this was in response to wtfomfg27, and again it's not in the reply section.

  • I have insurance and it costs $100 a month so you are getting ripped off royally. I suggest shopping around more or raising your deductible. Or better, use that $800 a month to sock away into a Health Savings Acct and have insurance only for catastrophic events such as cancer. That's a better use of your money.

  • Think about it, $800/mo is almost $10,000/yr. If you put that into a savings account earning interest, you'd have a lot of money to use for healthcare and not having to pay for insurance.

  • @Twtfomfg27 That would be a great idea...if I weren't ill and NEEDED the insurance!!I certainly hope you never get a 'catastrophic illness', Without insurance, I would be dead, and what do I do when it runs over the limit they'll pay?

  • I'm sorry you are ill but that doesn't mean other citizens should have to pay for your healthcare. Where do we draw the line? Should they pay for your house? Your electric bill? Your car?

  • wtfomfg27 u know that u still pay for fire department even thou ur house doesnt catch fire right? which means u paying for other ppl. So why not healthcare? sooner or later u will get sick, have kids, and ur kids get sick

  • You can't be denied care based on finances so you wouldn't be "dead". What about people who get injured in car accidents and have no insurance? Are they dying? No. Sure the insurance industry needs reform, but we will have to agree to disagree that the that making the taxpayers buy healthcare for everyone just creates more bureaucracy, higher taxes, lowers incentive for good care, and lowers the quality of care. Government run anything is terrible.

  • do u really think income taxes r legal? i dont think so, so why not get rid of income taxes that actually go into pockets of the few and invest in national health care system? go watch America: From Freedom to Fascism

  • do no try to speak with ignorant people who thinks the system is the best in the world, the are so stupid and ignorant,national healt care is a human right.thank God in eurpoe we do not die in hospitals,and our goverment has brains,thank GOD that all this non sense is far away from here!CNN always is talking shit.once again:what has to do irak with 9-11?nothinggggg was osama bin laden,who lives in afganistan and is a saudi.IGNORANT PEOPLE

  • Many poor people probably don't have computers, so they haven't given Bill any of their money. You can live quite well, if necessary, without a computer, or with a cheap computer and free linux, but you can't live long w/o healthcare.

  • Make medical training cheap or better still free like it is in Europe. Stop turning everything in life into a money making opportunity. Some things need to be done because it is good that they should be done.

  • "Make medical training cheap or better still free like it is in Europe."

    I hate to break it to you but medical training is not "free" in Europe.

  • Although come to think of it, the U.S. could possibly increase the supply of medical training facilities by removing all the licensing and accreditations it issues as requirements. Our government in many ways (through the AMA and FDA) do afford many medical related companies to construct barriers to protect their monopolies that would be non-existent in a free market.

  • i live in England and am English and if you did well in school than the goverment will pay to train you as a doctor they even pay you to train for a doctor and many other jobs so i dont know where you heard that from.

  • It is almost free. As is college (HBO or University) you pay around € 1500 a year.

    But also get money from the state if you are a student. So yes you can say Training is for free.

  • Dear John McCain, Iraq may not have been pardise prior to our invasion, but it's a hell of a lot worse now than it was beforehand. And citing atrocities that took place in the 1980s does nothing change the fact that Iraq is worse off now. PS. Michael Moore rocks my socks more than a dryer on crack

  • I absolutely love how Michael Moore EXPOSES the flaws of the U.S.A! ! ! Although I reciognize there is no place (country) to live that is perfect, the more I learn about our beautiful country, the more fearful I become of my future and.... God bless my UN-BORN children!

  • WTF we cant go to cuba? free countree my ass, the goverment has changed so much it has turned into something nothing like the Colonists would have thought of.

  • yeah, your right, health care in America is in great shape and the drug companies are saints, I think I know he doesn't know what reality is, it's too bad "we" in the US are so damn apathetic and are only concerned about our own situation and not others

  • We need more people like Moore in the world...he opens up doors for questions...is this a form of freedom of speech?

  • Michael Moore is really fat.

  • you know it's michael moore who published this video.. it's his channel..

  • I doubt michael moore physically checks all the comments posted on his channels.  He has his film guild and corporate agents to do that for him.

  • you think bush looks good dont you? Jerk off!

  • All about the money with the US...They have been trying to shut up moore since farenheit 911...Moore you rock...keep up the good work.

  • So many people are saying that Micheal Moore lies and distorts the truth, even if this is true, the fact remains that too many people ARE dying here because they aren't getting the help that they need. This is the main point of the movie and really the only thing that should matter! The importance of life should not be determined by money. Many people are dying over an amount comparable to buying a house. That's saying a house is more valuable than a life, SAD!

  • manipulative news

    brainwashing

    CNN boeh!!!

  • if moore is fined all his fans should just set up a fund to support him. I'd donate what i could, and I'm a student!

  • Michale moore is a hero. America is a bad country to live in compared to many many other nations.

  • then go live there boy

  • whats thats suppose to mean. rasist

  • I don't have any idea what you look like dude. Your stupidity not your race is what I think is "boyish" lol. Dumbass

  • Land of the free? I think not.

  • americans suck ass!!! GOOD JOB MICHAEL!!!!!!!

  • Mozz,,,

    I agree American politicians and "law-makers" are the primary and ONLY beneficiary of the American Tax dollars and political system. But why does the American people keeps electing the same politicians all over again for decades?

    It has been said,,,,, "nobody can abuse you with OUT your permission". Therefore, why blame the politicians?

  • But all American politicians are already millioners, from rich families or financed to be elected by rich corporations, who have more "convincing power" and great stake in keeping the statues quo than adapting a fair system for the ordinary lay citizen. American churches and the general public are too busy to care for a political change, raising their families and too pre-occupied with paying bills, indebted to banks and credit card corporations. Therefore, the cycle goes on,,,

  • Well you just have to ask your self one question. Why would someone pay $10 million + for a job that only lasts 8 years max? I think its obviously for the kickbacks

  • Mozz,,,

  • This is a set up. Ever wonder why an image flashes instantaneously after people mention something on TV? Because it was prepared in advance -- as was all this theater. This is Liberal theater which Everyman is suppose to believe in. Wolf never loses it because it's in the script. The script is to raise controversy for the dead movie Sicko. Sorry, Mickey, the movie is dead -- whether you take it to Cuba or not.

  • what a bunch of horseshit propaganda!!!

  • I wish America learns from Norway, how to treat Americans and other human beings better than America does. With out having the heart for the very people who served America all their life time, bluffing about being the richest empire and the super power of the world, won't do any one any good, because empires rise and fall, with grace or with out grace, depending how they treated their own people. See the film, "Sicko", and you will know that IT'S ABOUT TIME FOR AMERICA TO CARE.

  • 11% of the profit of the movie will go to the 9/11 rescuers. You probably don't get a penny out from a Steven Seagal, Bruce Willis or other dumbass hollywood war/action movie. Good job Michael, you are probably the only american citizen the world loves.

  • I live in Belgium, Europe. I've seen the movie and have to admitt that not all the facts are right. For example, if you don't take an additional private health insurance in England, the waiting lists are VERY long. BUT, in Belgium, we have free health care for everyone AND no waiting lists!!!!! So Michael More May not have all the facts right but he is trying to make a point!!! A really good point. And free healthcare is possible, just look to Belgium!!!!!

  • Nonesense - if treatment is urgently required you get it urgently if it can wait despite some pain then you wait and often not too long either. The long wait that make the press are the exception and are the result of exceptional circumstances. But you are right you can pay to go elsewhere if you wish - nobody is stopping you.

  • Sanjay Gupta and Wolf Blitzer are liars.

    "Hey Mike, uh, we did a fact check, it's full of errors, why ya gotta get so bent outta shape about it?!"

    SLIME.

  • Mercury never hurt nobody no how!! Who ses I should stop pollutin'! Reagan did it and look how rich he was!!

    Yes....and perhaps we should then get rid of the EPA and FEMA and all that "big government"-except, of course, for the wireless wiretapping part....and the prisons....and the part that leads us into illegal wars. "I got no secrets no how!!"

  • HA HA HA HA HA HA

    Hope you never need surgurey on that back. Then the joke is really on you. God forbid, you get an infection because the doctor knows you have no power to do anything about it and sews surgical rag into your spine....I'm so sorry that you should find out how wrong you really are the hard way. Seriously....Ever thought of that? Folks like you don't do much thinking past their nose so I would completely understand.

  • Im really surprize people like the fat bastard he only makes documentrys for money not what is the truth.Every one watch this film (shooting michel moore) u will see what I mean hes anti american.

  • Moore spoke out against the Bush/Cheney system of government. I'm surprised that CNN didn't label him as a terrorist. American democracy and freedom is replaced by Fascism, and Americans accept that because they are governed by greed and fear. The forfathers of America died for nothing. Americans are pussies that deserve to be wiped out.

  • Moore has serious mental issues. Sad.

  • It is so funny that they call Sanjay Gupta a "respectabele" anything! He is such a symbol of what is wrong with the USA.

  • *You said it!! I'd call him 'The Poster Child' of what's wrong with the US Health Care.

  • Hey Michael: How about free movie theatres?

  • paintcanvas. You can't compare a human life to a bloody cinema ticket! Stop posting your irrational comment on every SICKO video.

  • read my lips commie. free theatres would sure fuck up moore's life, and it'll be a long frost friday in hell before a lame, sickafant, introvert like you'll come along and tell me not to say my 2 cents worth on a common talk line...

  • paintcanvas. More like 0.02 cents worth of rhubbish.

  • hey, it's always gonna be in there no manner what demonination, now go back to sucking your thumb 'parkourist'...

  • Health Care is a RIGHT not a privledge. The Government MUST be there to provide health care to everybody.

    And while we're at it, so is Food, Water, Shelter, and Jobs.

    Yep, let's make the Government provide all of these RIGHTS for "Free".

    (Get down on your knees & beg for the Total State. You know you love it.)

  • The US government they don't take care of there own people , they care about the money sorry Americans but i will say be strong and fight for your rights

  • ah once again the american government tries to silence free speech any way they can... bastards

  • CNN stands for: Communist News Network.

  • ah nice "democracy" that us of a

  • I would LAY DOWN in front of a Tank for Michael Moore ! KUCINICH 2008***

  • Bush is a moron !!! Keep up the good work, Michael !!!

  • I LOVE Michael Moore and because of him I am voting for KUCINICH and my entire family GOD Bless Michael and DENNIS ! KUCINICH 2008***

  • bikeraces, in our privatised healthcare system Michael Moore is paying for the extra health care costs of his obesity with money he earned from making documentaries and writing books. So, Mr. "I'm going to make unqualified statements about a movie without seeing it," it seems that you are the one too lazy to do research and he is the good hard-working capitalist...

  • If you support universal health care, vote for Mike Gravel for president in 2008. Gravel is the ONLY candidate running on a platform that supports universal health care! Please research MIKE GRAVEL, you owe it to yourself, your family and your health!

  • if the state was NOT concerned with waging false wars, then there would be currency for supporting a novice health care system. privatization support by bush is BECAUSE OF IS CRONYISM and alliance for his corporate rat buddies. GREEEDDYYY bush sopports private health care because he doesn't nned to worry, he is a political elite, as for the rest of america ..DON'T GET SICK

  • Support BILL HR 676 -- Don't patronize us and say it's not free, "We pay for it with taxes!." .. Well we drive on city streets for FREE - their construction paid with taxes, they're FREE, - Books at our libraries are FREE, - our Fire Departments, Police Departments etc., are FREE. All FREE services, collectively socialized and paid for with our tax dollars. To argue that Health Care -- a life & death issue for many -- shouldn't be considered in the SAME league is LUDICROUS and ARCHAIC.

  • You deserve what affords you the future: paranoia, insecurity, loss of the world leadership and purchasing power... I find that like you continue this way, it is hour that the Europeans stop to learn English and let us begin to learn Chinese.

  • Looks like you haven't even learned English yet...

  • Undoubtedly nr. I speak Spanish and I have a not well translating one for English. Although that doesn't mean that I don't worry what happens in your "Great Nation." But do you care something what happens in the rest of the world, or are you the center of the universe?

  • Because you feel superior, because you accumulate money and you waste it among some few ones. Because if you want the wealth that possess other countries, you steal it and you disguise him of war against the terrorism. And mainly to be more fundamentalist than the radical islamistas. Michael Moore wants to open up the eyes and you finish voting another time to Bush's marionette.

  • As they eat your head in U.S! You spend the money in manufacturing bombs and missiles instead of investing in social more services. You perturb yourselves if it leaves a teat for TV but you don't say anything if your children still come violent, or worse movies, if they go to the school with weapons. Do you know why it hates you everybody?

  • The american government is so bullshit.

  • Mike is the guy!!

  • I hope Mr. Moore goes after the Bush adminstration next. Those guys are crooks from the get go, with the blood of thousands on their hands. You can criticize Michael Moore all you want, at least he's doing something to liven up the debate over the status quo in this country.

  • I don't trust the judgement of obese people. They tend to be very upset at life.

    It's simple...

    Cuba = take away freedom.

    One freedom is profit making.

    They take profits for their citizens, and put it into healthcare.

    Essentially Michael Moore would like to socialize the United States, so we can fun health care.

    In the UK, doctors make 30,000 a year. I have a bachelors degree, and I make 30,000 a year.

  • Yes maybe whilst they are still accumulating skill but when they make consultant (if they are good enough)they can earn in excess of £120k ($250k). Do you want a system that because of the money making principle average and below average doctors make ludicrous sums of money their skill does not warrant just because people can't avoid getting ill. That is abuse of a monopoly system if ever I heard of one.

  • No skill? What are you talking about? Do YOU have what it takes to go to school for TEN YEARS? Few people do! Don't they deserve to make more than someone with a 2-year degree? Or a high school degree? Please shut your ignorant mouth!

  • As a matter of fact I do: But my point is about relative skill - some doctors are better than others. Doctors do no more training than a professional engineer.

  • Oh DO you now? Doctors are no better than engineers? ROFLOL! Are you joking????? Now engineers are smart and do very hard work I will say that, but when was the last time an engineer had to do emergency surgery to save someone's life? Or put themselves at risk for diseases to operate on someone? And one wrong move in a split second could kill someone? Oh that's right, NEVER! If I need open heart surgery, I think I'll look for someone with medical training over an engineer. Thanks. Bye!

  • To you conservatives out there with your head in the sand or up your ass, it's time to wake up and smell the coffee. You supported a goofy bastard in GW Bush to be your president, and he has failed our country miserably. What is it about you imbeciles that makes you so adverse to education and progress? Did your daddies sneak into your room late at night and touch you in inappropriate places? Is that why you are so bitter about life?

  • I don't agree with main stream media nor Micheal Moore they both mix the truth with lies, they both show only what they want you to see, its funny how at the end of the interview Micheal Moore says "I'am glad you did this live and didn't record this so you can edit it" well sorry but Micheal Moore does the same with his movies, he says that the CNN report was biased well so is he

  • Micheal Moore a hero to Humanity !
