Does someone know why Michael Moore lies when the man in the motorway desk ask him if the camera is on? and why Michael More don't cover his face? Don't get me wrong, I love this film but I was just curious. Maybe after the film was made they asked him if he could appear? someone knows?
For anyone who thinks the American system is fine, just walk into any 7-11 and see the coffee cans with photocopied pictures of bald, frail cancer kids, with notes begging for donations.
I often here, 'Who is going to cover our medical bills' or something alike. I heard Marge Simpson say that on Simpsons and never took it into account till this film came out. As a Brit, I get how bad it is for Americans.
Especially when some of the medications these people may be on can easily cost upwards of $1000 or more & most senior citizens are on a fixed income???
It's about greed and money it always has and alwys will be about the cashh look at Katrina that was one of the biggest devastations and the selfish bastards in washington couldn't lend a hand.
Moore's movie shows this womens run for the Canadian border in need of healthcare for her child ,and also shows the apparently superior Cuban heath system.
But, he dosen't show any Cubans escaping the utopia of the "workers paradice" risking their lives on rafts or homemade boats trying to get to Florida".

Soooo...instead of burdening the U.S. she goes to Canada and stretches the taxpayers there? No offense, but has anyone ever heard of natural selection?
If the Canadian system is so great, how come it's illegal to get healthcare there? Breaking the law? Maybe they know how it is with illegal aliens in the US. I don't see any Mexicans complaining about how they are going to pay a $60k bill for having a to see a doctor.
Its illegal for Americans to steal our tax dollars, im sure you wouldn't like me going to your home and just taking some money from you. This being said, I realize its not right for her to have to suffer, but the American people need to fix their situation, is your government really so corrupted by business that they wont cut the ties with insurance?
Our government is very corrupt. The federal government in Washington is getting rich favoring the Fed Bank. Our constitution does not allow our congress to institue national healthcare. Not that congress cares. It's a much more simple issue at the state level. The federal government would use this issue to gain power not help people.
My husbands Ins. Co. just sent me a letter to tell me that they are not going to cover a physical therapy device that I've had for over a year now that keeps me from getting headaches so bad that I cannot function. I'm disabled, have been denied disability 3 times (they're even denying Vets who are disabled) now and I cannot afford the money for the device. The pain is so bad, nothing helps but the device. They said statistics said it didn't help. =\
If they aren't going to cover the device then they should send you to the Mass. General Hospital in Boston to go to the Neurology Headache clinic. I would think Harvard would be the last call as to what works or doesn't work. You need to fight fire with fire. Your expert opinion vs. their expert opinion. In a court of law that's how its done. The guy who does the most research and the better credentials rules in medicine. See the Chairman of the Dept. of Neurology at MGH.

I can't find ONE person here in Sweden (who has been living in the US) that would trade your healthcare system for ours.
It doesn't matter what Moore says, or what the Bush People or Obama says.
Listen to people, and you will come to understand that we are all in the same boat.

I doubt you could find one normal person that understands the two health care systems well enough to make the judgement.
Listening to people is fairly useless unless they actually have some background in the matter.

Has anybody in Sweden ever gone bankrupt because of medical bills?
I can't find a single Canadian or Brit who has gone bankrupt due to medical debt.
Thanks for your comment!

A know a LOT of people here who would have gone bankrupt under the US system.
Not one here has to worry. It's all taken care of via taxes. Everyone gets to live. Not only the insured. As it should be.

pizzaboy,
So she does not fit your version of "family values." The HMO refused to pay her medical bills on bogus grounds. That is
the point Michael Moore was trying to get accross.
