@Hootshot112 Obama health care plan has nothing to do with making america better its forcing americans to pay higher taxes that they cannot afford america is a shithole country that wants to keep the rich person(s) rich and make the poor even more poor And if you dont have a job in america and you cant afford meds if your able to work but cant find a job your pushed aside and forgotten , as you saw in the trailer if you cant pay theres nothing they will do to help you no matter your problems
OMG. BlackThought!!! I wanna see this now, just because of him before finishing the rest of the trailer. He's seriously one of THE BEST MC's of all time!!! Anyway, this movie looks good.
you would think that doctors become doctors to help people, and do good no matter what. but people are being refused basic medical treatment just because they dont have the money to pay the doctors. this is one fucked up world we live in, and its gonna get even worse in the upcoming years, thats the truth. my heart is broken for all those people around the world living in conditions these greedy corrupt governments cant even imagine, or dont want to pay attention to. just sad...
What if your family have nothing, you got married and had children and then your husband/wife left and you have no money for healthcare... no employment opportunity. Is it really any wonder so many choose the option of stealing or selling drugs when they have no other choices? We should look out for each other, not just sit by and let the less fortunate suffer because i can guarantee those that have now, if they don't tomorrow will be the first saying they have the right to help.
Someone said this movie is propaganda but is it not true that America's Health Care is Private? is it not true that there are people in America that do not have money so as a result they do not have access to a basic human right, Healthcare. Also there are people without housing, electric or water. These things are basic human rights, we cannot just sit back and let the less fortunate suffer. As an adult in Britain I pay allot of Tax for these things, and am happy to do so.
Desperate mom with sick kid - "I don't have that kind of money"
Pharmacist - "then there's nothing I can do"
Why did almost all of America scream 'NO!' when Obama tried to get a new medical system much like the NHS, which would really really benefit people like those in this movie? - because it would mean increased taxes for most Americans
just goes to show how selfish everyone is...and it's really sad .... :'(
I agree, if you ask most people about if they'd like to see it they would probably say it's stupid. It's particualrly emotional coming from me because I've seen this, I've lived this. Not quite as bad, but I have lived this. And It makes me sick that people aren't helping people in poverty. C'mon, we're a country, time to start acting like one. Help our nations children! Feed the hungry! It's time to invest into helping people instead of killing!
@automaticchic gees!!stupiddd!!LOLOLOL i forgot i opened another page and the song was playing and i thought it was a soundtrack from the movie!!lol wat timing! the song and the scene!..LOL sorry!!XD LOL
shit ass movie Explicit Ills gay but the Trailer thay made was good and got me suckd in intell i watch'd the movie i was like wtf is this crap!!!it was all mixd up and made no sents at all the olney thing good was the Trailer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If America nuked all the 3rd world countries they could save the money they have been putting into those places and use it for them selves. Why help dying people when you could have the ability to cure healthy ones right.
Just explain something to me: Who is supposed to pay for health care for all the poor people? I'm not saying that they shouldn't have health care. I just want to know who's going to pay for it. As of now, it's China who's paying it. So - hooray! We will soon be owned by China and then we'll live in a socialist country and have free health care.
the so called heath care reforms your preaching bout being so good and we should be thankful for hasn't changed anything.stop listening to everything you hear on tv you wouldn't sound so stupid.Your from Canada, tell us bout Canada, but don't go spouting off BS about the US being this and that when you have no clue to the reality of it.These so called health care reforms haven't even put a dent in the heath care issues.unique chance, that's laughable
@MizzChaos not disagreeing with your statement. It would be more effective to use "about" instead of "bout." I'm not the grammar nazi or spell checker but, it really draws attention away from what your saying by misspelling such a common word. It also stands out because lesser educated people say "bout" instead of "about."
i like the vibes i am getting from this movie. There needs to be some sort of class revolt in this country. there is too much of a disparity between the rich and poor. Tax the hell out of the rich and give the poor a fighting chance!!
@CelticKraut communist shit ? man i dont care how do u call it thise days but i can see from miles that u havent see what is like 2 be hungry or siq and dont have many or any1 2 care for u...spoiled cunt

Here in Ukraine we have healtcare for free. At the same time you have to pay, like a bribe. And in the end there's no guarantee you'll get better anyway.
Only if you have connections and much more money. That's it.
Hey, I'm an American prick who's mother has cancer too and has to keep working full time to recieve treatment, and I support Obama's health care plan, so please don't assume that we as Americans just believe what Fox news tells us to.
when I said "American pricks" I was talking about the Americans who are against proper health care plan. I do not hate American, unlike many fellow Canadians. In fact, I wanna work there someday!
Guess what - when we lived in Canada half of our money went to the government right off the bat to begin with - And when my grandma got sick she managed to go to a hospital - only for a few days until the cost was too much to be covered by the 'free' health care. We could not pay the remaining amount and ended up bankrupt in turn.
While as I feel that health care is important, stop being an ideologist - it will never be entirely 'free' nor 'perfect'.
This is gong to be soo good, although i live in Australia i am interested in the american health system, maybe this will help open some peoples eyes. Everyone should be entitled to healthcare regardless of how much money is in their bank.
And who will pay for it? I don't want to work my ass off for someone else. How will you ensure its quality? I live in a country where everyone is entitled to a health system and the service sucks. Month long lives to get into the doctor office only to wait a few more months to get the service you need. I want to pay but i want to demand also. In a social heath service you can demand shit...
Oh poor you. Yeah, it's okay for your tax dollars to go towards killing innocent Muslims over in Iraq but god forbid that your tax dollars should help children breathe. You are the absolute problem with America, you greedy shit.
@saiyaneer Really? ALL the terrorists ARE muslims? Not one other person of any other religion has ever been a terrorist, is what you say? This is garbage, it's like the times when the English accused all terrorists of being Irish. Naturally, the terrorists were offended. All joking aside, your comment = FTL!!!
dzik01: The people. You is working your ass off for others anyway because we live in a society in which people work for each other. If you think youre alone on the planet, why bother working anyway? Just quit it.
You clearly misunderstand what i am saying. I am not against helping other people! What i am against is the government FORCING me to do so. Choice is the difference here. And the lack of -a problem. Its my money. I earn it. I want to choose. Whats wrong with that?
p.s I'm not American. I live in Poland when such healthcare is already present. If you want to pay bribes for service just to save your life then please.. go ahead. It's so sad too see America turn towards socialism more and more like that.
unless you are self employed, we all are working our asses off for someone else. If you do not want to give away your hard earned money to someone else, than you should also tell your government to privatise the fire department, the police department...etc. I live in a country(taiwan) where we have universal health care, and we don't have to wait months or days to go to the doctor. There is nothing wrong with the concept of universal health care, just the way the system provides it.
you idiot. If something happen to your child, and you don't have the money to pay for, he or she will die. YOu better wait than die. I'm a proud Canadian, and I'm again f*cking idiotic individualist such as you. You're arguing about the system? At least, you have one. I have one, and my mom has cancer. I know what is it to wait. I know. Do you?
I'm from Australia too. We know no different here. If you get sick, you get help. No matter your circumstances. For a low income earner in Australia, you pay no more than $5 for a prescription.
The USA should realise that preventing illness and curing sickness has positive economic outcomes in the long run.
Also, I don't believe the stuff with no meds, no money. If you're really poor (125% federal poverty guidelines) you get state aid (aka "welfare system.") There's also homeless shelters and soup kitchens in USA. Problem is people with some money but not middle class get no help from the government in USA.
Were poor give us money, if you wont give it to us then we will take it away. What a great movie idea except for the fact that i get to watch this movie every paycheck that i get, which is taxed out of its ass.
I wanna watch this It makes me feel home in the phillippines all the ppl in need Children dieing in young ages, young children picking in trash for food, yound children taking showers in lakes, young children already working at the age of 4 years old for 2 bucks a day :( Just wish that the world will change and open up places that really need the help and courage in this world .... Please take my words for other places in the world that need help, China, Africa, Egypt, India, Mexico, etc thanks!
Isn't it managed care there? For example, if you're old and need surgery you are either on a 2 year waiting list or they give you comfort care to die b/c you're not worth saving.
allseeingeye93...keep reading ur books. u seem to have a bit of knowledge and in time u will come full circle and realise that what u've written here is bullshit! its ok, i was young once too, and if ur not young, then its never too late. WEcan have it all and cure everything...ALL is possible. PEACE!
This film will be touching if you've been around poverty before, or been through it. The thing is with modern films is that they are all alike in some way. I can't think of any film like this. A lot of people will say, "I don't want to see it" or "it looks shit" because they don't want people to know that they actually find this story heart warming. Things like this do go on in the world, but without being solved.
you hit the nail on the head gthb. people aren't so inclined to see or hear about events that do not affect them. much less get involved to change them.
the privileged class is notorious for this which helps to perpetuate the struggle of folks in poverty because so few folks control the world,s money. to them folks who starve and fall and stay ill are of no concern to them because they have money to fix themselves when they break.
you could live a million lifetimes without understanding why you are so wrong. it's really sad but folks like you are exactly why we don't have universal health care. and as long as there are folks with your mindset, health care for everyone will always be threatened.
okay...uh, firstly, not everyone in the film was in tha ghetto white boy from new zealand who can't fathom struggles of people of color and poor folks. secondly if you had watched the film, you'd have seen that at the end, EVERYONE from the film took part in a march.
i guess you're just sour because your fellow zealanders have started their own wannabe hip-hop culture?
you have a lot to read and learn.
and silly young white boy from new zealand, black folk have have used the arts
its much easier to dismiss me cos I'm White, right?
true, I never grew up in poverty, but my dad did, he used to go to school with no lunch, etc. But instead of trying to rap or DJ like a dumbcunt he tried to make it as an account. He achieved that goal and decided to go into management, now he's the CEO of one of the largest coal companies in Australia.
This movie is off a true story so its obviously not bullshit everyone is always fighting because pussy's like you would rather start a gang and shoot at each other cuz you wanna be a gangster rather than realize what the real problem is and come together too fix it
Fight? Fight for what? To end economic inequality? Sorry, but that can't be achieved without socialism; and socialism is one of the most flawed concepts in human history. I know it's sad but some people have to suffer so that others may know joy. It is the nature of life; not only for humans but for all beings.
I'm all for anarchy, but it won't solve the problem of inequality. There is a limited number of resources; yet at our current rate of reproduction the human species will reach an infinite population. It is inevitable that people will die so that there will be enough resources for others. Think about this; if Africans weren't so poor would you be so rich? I think not; and I for one am not willing to give up my own wealth for others.
at the end of the movie it says "for my son." does anyone know if webbers son died in circumstances like that of the movie or if his son is still alive?
This movie shows all aspects of life not just the rich of upper middle class. At the end of the movie that really happened here in Philadelphia. That march was from Broad and Eerie Ave. all the way downtown to the Mayor's office. If you don't know it was about 80 blocks. It was around 1996 or 97. I was like 16 or 17 when this happened. It got a lot of media coverage and cause our government to stop cutting programs and stop stealing money from the state that people really need.
art always has the potential to open people's eyes to new perspectives, the art itself may not initially change things but the change in perspective provided by the art might
well come one it's better then doing nothing. poverty will only stop once the north stops controling the south, only helping the billionaires in the north and south to get richer. it will stop once cheap labour stops, it will stop once the back bones of imperialism and colonialism are forever done away with which can only be done once the west realizes it's not them vs. the rest. and it can be done if ppl started trying to help out at home instead of rushing to the 3rd worlds. everyone needs aid
Philadelphia had made budget cuts. So what they did was cut some of the State Insurance and this cause certain medications to be uninsured. Also some households were turned away from getting insurance altogether. There was another movie out as well that actually goes deeper. It was a documentary done about a woman trying to get more help from the state for families that was poor. At one point in the movie they were staying in a vacant lot.
Not sure. I saw it on a public access channel. It was crazy. The state ignored these people calling them crazy. Then when a news reporter showed kids living in this vacant lot they had to do something then. They told the people if they didnt move they all were going to be arrested an their kids were going into foster care!!!! If I see it again I will let you know.
This looks good, finally someone is taking on real issues... America is only a good country if you got money. If you don't have money, you're overlooked and downright screwed. Take if from someone living here, don't believe half the crap about everyone being taken care of... its about screwing over the poor so the high class can be richer. =( =( It especially sucks for the minoritys.

There's also homeless shelters and soup kitchens in USA. Problem is people with some money but not middle class get no help from the government in USA.

Were poor give us money, if you wont give it to us then we will take it away. What a great movie idea except for the fact that i get to watch this movie every paycheck that i get, which is taxed out of its ass.

Isn't it managed care there? For example, if you're old and need surgery you are either on a 2 year waiting list or they give you comfort care to die b/c you're not worth saving.

This film will be touching if you've been around poverty before, or been through it. The thing is with modern films is that they are all alike in some way. I can't think of any film like this. A lot of people will say, "I don't want to see it" or "it looks shit" because they don't want people to know that they actually find this story heart warming. Things like this do go on in the world, but without being solved.
gthb101 2 years ago 19
you hit the nail on the head gthb. people aren't so inclined to see or hear about events that do not affect them. much less get involved to change them.
the privileged class is notorious for this which helps to perpetuate the struggle of folks in poverty because so few folks control the world,s money. to them folks who starve and fall and stay ill are of no concern to them because they have money to fix themselves when they break.

you could live a million lifetimes without understanding why you are so wrong. it's really sad but folks like you are exactly why we don't have universal health care. and as long as there are folks with your mindset, health care for everyone will always be threatened.
djalternegro 2 years ago
I'm not against universal health-care, I think it's a valid concept and a positive thing for society.
I just don't want to see everyone in poverty trying to rap and dance their way out of the ghetto.

pjm012345 2 years ago
okay...uh, firstly, not everyone in the film was in tha ghetto white boy from new zealand who can't fathom struggles of people of color and poor folks. secondly if you had watched the film, you'd have seen that at the end, EVERYONE from the film took part in a march.
i guess you're just sour because your fellow zealanders have started their own wannabe hip-hop culture?
you have a lot to read and learn.
and silly young white boy from new zealand, black folk have have used the arts
djalternegro 2 years ago
to escape poverty since before you were ever a thought.
and you don't wanna see everyone in poverty rap or dance? what'll you have them do? you got jobs and plane tickets waiting for us?
what is wrong with rapping and dancing? whether rich or poverty stricken?
djalternegro 2 years ago
its much easier to dismiss me cos I'm White, right?
true, I never grew up in poverty, but my dad did, he used to go to school with no lunch, etc. But instead of trying to rap or DJ like a dumbcunt he tried to make it as an account. He achieved that goal and decided to go into management, now he's the CEO of one of the largest coal companies in Australia.
Hard work and realistic goals.
None of this rap bollocks.
Especially from u djalternegro,

Fight? Fight for what? To end economic inequality? Sorry, but that can't be achieved without socialism; and socialism is one of the most flawed concepts in human history. I know it's sad but some people have to suffer so that others may know joy. It is the nature of life; not only for humans but for all beings.
allseeingeye93 2 years ago
allseeing: Yes, it can be achieved without socialism. We've tried all the systems of rule, let's give Anarchy its due!
noraquick 2 years ago
I'm all for anarchy, but it won't solve the problem of inequality. There is a limited number of resources; yet at our current rate of reproduction the human species will reach an infinite population. It is inevitable that people will die so that there will be enough resources for others. Think about this; if Africans weren't so poor would you be so rich? I think not; and I for one am not willing to give up my own wealth for others.

This movie shows all aspects of life not just the rich of upper middle class. At the end of the movie that really happened here in Philadelphia. That march was from Broad and Eerie Ave. all the way downtown to the Mayor's office. If you don't know it was about 80 blocks. It was around 1996 or 97. I was like 16 or 17 when this happened. It got a lot of media coverage and cause our government to stop cutting programs and stop stealing money from the state that people really need.

well come one it's better then doing nothing. poverty will only stop once the north stops controling the south, only helping the billionaires in the north and south to get richer. it will stop once cheap labour stops, it will stop once the back bones of imperialism and colonialism are forever done away with which can only be done once the west realizes it's not them vs. the rest. and it can be done if ppl started trying to help out at home instead of rushing to the 3rd worlds. everyone needs aid

SarahTubman 2 years ago
Philadelphia had made budget cuts. So what they did was cut some of the State Insurance and this cause certain medications to be uninsured. Also some households were turned away from getting insurance altogether. There was another movie out as well that actually goes deeper. It was a documentary done about a woman trying to get more help from the state for families that was poor. At one point in the movie they were staying in a vacant lot.
Reignofknowledge 2 years ago
What was this documentary called?
striker1224 2 years ago
Not sure. I saw it on a public access channel. It was crazy. The state ignored these people calling them crazy. Then when a news reporter showed kids living in this vacant lot they had to do something then. They told the people if they didnt move they all were going to be arrested an their kids were going into foster care!!!! If I see it again I will let you know.

This looks good, finally someone is taking on real issues... America is only a good country if you got money. If you don't have money, you're overlooked and downright screwed. Take if from someone living here, don't believe half the crap about everyone being taken care of... its about screwing over the poor so the high class can be richer. =( =( It especially sucks for the minoritys.
