  • This is nonsense. 20% of premiums towards overhead. 80% of premiums toward medical care. I think if you look at the P/L statements of companies in almost any industry you'll see that company overhead is much larger than 20%. In my company overhead is closer to 60%. Remember that 20% isn't profit. For profit health insurance carriers actually make between 2-10% annual profit. This is in line or lower than many other industries. Medicare a model of efficiency??? Please!?!

  • Bill Moyers seems to have trouble understanding that the main goal for insurance companies is not to help sick people, but to see how much money they can make from sick people. This is exactly what insurance companies want, the trust of the American citizens. The difference between insurance companies and buzzards is that buzzards wait until you die before the swoop down to feed off of you. Insurance companies do it while you're sick and are dying. What worse thing could a person do???

  • This is why Dr Sanjay Gupta & Wolf Blitzer tried to destroy Michael Moore after "Sicko" came out. Moore took them both on & destroyed them. 2 against 1 did wear Moore down b/c Handsome Sanjay did his condescending best to save his professional ass later on the Larry King Show. Moore only managed to stand his ground while pointing out that he sent documented facts to Gupta's producer & this Dr choose to misrepresent those same facts.
  • FYI; Healthcare in all provinces of Canada is not free. The Sicko movie didn't portray Canada's healthcare HONESTLY;

    People are dying waiting for MRI's to diagnose life-threatening health conditions; I personally had to wait 30 months for a MRI to properly diagnose my injury due to workers compensations involvement in my rehabilitation of my injury claim.

    Due to workmans compensation denial of my physicians requests I suffered severe multiple injuries and was denied any medical help again;

  • @FIXWCBCANADA but then it would mean that it wasn't really just the healthcare system that screwed you over, it was the companies contribution to prevent being held legally and financially responsible that screwed you over.

  • USA was known for Liberty, now it's known for capitalizing, trademarking and charging for freedoms...

    "...DickBush Incorporated....we're the best at removing axis of evil, destroying despots, removing rogue states... only $1500 BILLION DOLLARS, in 3 easy payment of $500 Billion ( plus $12.95 in P&H), but wait call in the next 5 minutes and we'll give you 20% off your next country of invasion... please read the PDS before making a desision.

  • Very sad that our country - particularly the elected Officials have sold us all out. The fact that they have no shame in their deceit and lies. Greedy bastards at our expense. HEALTH CARE REFORM NOW - or we're SCREWED!
