260 millions are happy with it? That's a conservative lie; the most prominent surveys such as the Gallup Poll have shown since the 1990s that over 2/3 of all Americans favor a single payer health care system. The only people who would support private health care are corporate stooges who profit from it.

"I don't ever wanna hear we don't have money for health care again!" right on michael ; when will amerika get over its hatred and see mm represents the basic simple rights that should be afforded all people?

Very good and very important video.

A-For-Da-Ble Health' will save our economy

It's in the best interest of everybody,

if every job moves out of the country,

than (tell me) whose gonna pay the medical fee?

Because a few million dollars isn't enough to fund universal healthcare. Instead of arguing against Michael Moore's position, what you idiotic conservatives attempt to do is expose what you perceive to be "hypocrisy."

one man cannot simply dontate millions and hope to change a system. A system is for all people, so everyone should understand it. Donating money is a good deed but will not bring about change for the greater good. If someone did donate a lot of money for the healthcare system and this will help for X days/months...but what after that?

They have a right to offer a service the populace has a right to refuse that service. If the service was so terrible, why are 260 million americans happy with it? The problem is people do not read their agerement and think they are paying for something they are not. My point is Michael Moore is a hypocrit berating others for making money, while living fat up in his mansion.

So YourNameHere what should we do? shutup and just take it! Let the greedy bastards take all your money, then deny you the service you paid for. Cmon wake up!!!

[YourNameHere1212]

sigh, first of all. That figure is not accurate. It might not be enough, but it would show he means the words his big mouth is spewing out. Most other people advocating their positions are so ready to sacrifice everything, yet moore lives fat while criticizing others for making profit.

[theunholysoul]

Weiner and him did provide financial support to some of the 9/11 support workers. The point is - even if he disposed all his own wealth to help the needed, it will not be enough, and it will not resolve anything. Hence, the reason why he opened a national debate. Now! If you got 57 million citizens affected by this, how the hell are you gonna tackle it?

[YourNameHere1212]

the point is still very valid. I do not see michael moore volunteer his millions to help those in his movies. He merely berates everyone else. It is easy to complain, it is hard to come up with solutions. All michael moore does is bitch and complain about everything. I think it is really funny that he doesn't even offer to give some of his profits from his bullshit "documentaries" to causes. He keeps it all to himself. He is a joke and a hypocrit.
