I think people are confused about Michael Moore...mostly Republicans and people who don't like hearing the unpleasant truth. What makes him great is that he's an "exposer" and lifts up the carpet and shows people what's been swept under there. The reason he doens't show us the "other side of the story" is because it's already been told a thousand times and it's usually a lie of sorts.

If you WANT to hear lies than all you have to do is listen to any of the Bush administration propaganda. Anyone with half a brain knows our health care system is crap and should know that BEFORE they see the movie. That being said....rich people think our health care system is great simply because they can afford it. They don't want to hear about how things are going for the rest of us....they just want us to take out their trash and go to war for them.

I was slightly worried he compared it to the UK health system. The NHS has a world of problems on its own.

Michael Moore is fat, and I agree with him sometimes. :D

I'll look into this, then. Thanks for the prompt.

I am neutral towards Michael Moore but I am kind of annoyed by the fact that he is notorious for introducing EXTREMELY one sided arguments.

1) He didn't interview a single American doctor.

-This already shows he doesn't want people knowing the other side of the issue.

2) He didn't focus on the problems of all the non-American systems.

-For example, remember that French dude that got to leave his job for THREE months and everyone was ok with it? And the government used the people's tax money to pay for his lazy ass. Can't you see people taking advantage of this and completely wasting taxpayer money?

He also didn't mention that America has the most advanced medical technology in the world.

Don't get me wrong, I am not defending the American system but it just pisses me off when movie/documentary makes present such a one sided argument. I can bet you anything that thousands and thousands of people left this movie and are now using it as their ONLY source of information on this topic.

Either way, I personally was sickened by the fact that American doctors are paid more for NOT treating patients. That is just wrong no matter what kind of spin you put on it.

i've seen the movie ,and it was very eye opening. those that can't see that they are being screwed over but the current health care system in the US really need to get their heads out of the sand. no matter what side of the political fence ur on, u really need to see this film and start asking questions about how can we change the current sad state of US health care.
