Already saw it, our healthcare is as bad as you all might imagine it is in your worst nightmares, but hey ….its insurance, they make money by collecting premiums…NOT by paying claims….follow the money, pretty simple really, they slop the troughs of both sides of the aisle so no politician is going to be too disagreeable with big pharma…
M. Moore does manipulate the facts to suit his opinions however, but no more than any other public figure in my estimation, but his points are well taken. I think his portrayal of 3rd world countries and other more socialist/communist countries having better healthcare compared to ours is a little (lot) over blown.
If I needed heart surgery, I would want the guy that is the most successful in his trade to do my operation. In a capitalist society, the way people are measured in their success of their profession is by pay…. I want the guy who drives a porsche, not the guy who takes the bus to work.
Good health is NOT a right, its a privilege….Unfortunately for the sick who are poor also, but what can you do ? At some point everybody must take responsibility for themselves, if your sick and your poor, your gonna get worse and maybe die….if your a billionaire like that old fart Amway founder (Jay Van something or other) and you've simply outlived your heart and need a transplant, then your gonna get a new heart, cuz you can "afford" it…simple as that…People in India readily sell their organs for financial gain….Its a HUGE industry over there. Life is onyl precious..if you can afford it.
