  • I would rather face a "death panel" consisting of government byrocrats than a "death panel" consisting of insurance company employees that gets a fat bonus for not helping you.

  • Moore was & IS right! My husband is from England & ALL his diabetes & heart meds as well as his glasses & dental are ALL covered! Wish to God we could have the same here but the rich politicians will make sure that never happens~ Just so long as THEY get full coverage.

  • When I was a little kid, I used to love to look at this old theology book because it contains lots of pictures of different kinds of sins and I'd always see the devil standing behind the one committing the sin. I remember one of those pictures was of some people selling snake oil to lots of sick people. There was the devil with his horns. I guess the artist forgot to include Cigna and Blue Cross Blue Shield on the wagon and also some pharmaceutical companies.

  • I live in the UK, we can choose our own General Practitioner, we can choose which consulatant we see, we can choose which hospital we attend. Prescriptions are £6.70, regardless of which drug you need. Prescriptions for cancer patients and other long standing illnesses are free. "fat camps" for children are available free, as are other services, but there is no pressure put on for your child to attend. Its just there if you want it. Its foolish to think that things are forced on you by the NHS

  • @vicschleich what other things have taken place in GB? Please elaborate.....

  • The NHS "strongly advises" parents to send their children to fat camps if the government deems them overweight. The NHS has a rationing body know as the NICE. This organization has labeled several cancer treatments as "unnecessary". A girl had her heart surgery cancelled three times due to over crowding in ICU. She died just several days after her last surgery date was cancelled. Funds for NHS are low, there fore treatment has been withdrawn. Government is meant to protect us, not control.

  • @vicschleich you mean, like CIGNA denying Nataline Sarkisyan a liver transplant because it was "experimental" and only bowed to public pressure and approved it, hours before she died? Like that kind of control?

  • Yes they pay in taxes, but we pay out of pocket. Canadas average health care cost per capita is 3500, ours is more than double at 7400. That's because they pay for coverage, and government controlled salaries. We pay more than double because we pay not only for coverage but for; bloated salaries, profit margins, marketing, political contributions, and additional overhead.

  • vicschleich, where are you getting your information? Kalilaaziza has provided an example for you of healthcare in the UK. If michael moore is wrong, than who is right?

  • @vicschleich I must really laugh about how you're describing my country - which has got universal/socialized health care. You really have got no idea

  • Check out the movie "Bullworth." It really takes on the puppet legislature that is is manipulated by The Huge Insurance Companies. I'm looking for the star to rise that will take on the hospitals, another corporate sacred cow that get's away with charging an arm and a leg and your first born child for services... taking advantage of sick people's natural desperation.

  • My employer switched insurance providers efffective June 1 and with that my co-pays have nearly doubled (the health insurance adjuster decided that most of my Diabetic prescriptions should be considered "two" instead of "one" and so my $20 deductible is doubled for each prescription, each month now). AND there is now a deductible. AND with that, there is still an additional monthly premium cost, that is $45.00 more each month. I'm sure it will go up again in one year.

  • The tragedy here is that the American's backing the RNC and the puppets of the lobbyists and insurance companies continue to let it happen. Stooges. This guy coming forward should be the lead on every major outlet - but there are "advertising dollars by the insurance companies" to consider too...get a new business Insurance company theives.

  • Easy to say AFTER you've made your MILLIONS and you live in your mansion sipping tea with your fat pension. This guy coming out now trying to act like he's sympathetic is a slap in the face.

    What a worm

  • well done! I should watch this news show more often.

  • mivhael moore was right!! and it is a shame that the people he is trying to help are against him... like the stupid protesters.

  • Anyone who wants to know the truth about Health Care minus all the crap please take a moment to visit the comment section of my profile. I have all kinds of RESOURCES. See who's in the pocket of big pharma. Representatives phone #s. Answers. Scare Tactics DEBUNKED. The easy to read version of the bill sent out by congress. The long version of the bill. It's a one stop health care reform shop so to speak. Check it out. Let's unite and share information.

  • Just wait there are more people coming out to tell the truth.

    The big one is yet to come.

    The people will freak out.

    Almost all we have been told in the past 100 years was faked and the truth is coming.

    I don't mean some of the major events I mean almost all of them.

    Peace and Truth

  • Speaking out is better late than never.

  • More CEO's in all industries should come out and be human for a minute or two and blow the whistle on the backdrop crimes to humanity which are going on, not even if it is for the public but for their own conscience.

  • Oh yeah, like coming clean now absolves this guy of all his previous sins. Sorry dude, that special place in hell is still waiting for you.

  • And here I thought Jesus was all about forgiveness

  • doesn'tt matter that hes coming clean now - hes now just realizing the faults in the system. He wants to make things right for the people - the 'Health Care Bill' is bullshit and hes stepping up to say so!
