Freak I am sure you have jusification for your angst. However, when you quote CNN, (the first biased news business in the world, and the first one to actually try to push people in certain directions because we are not smart enough on our own) as a reference for your reasoning I take exception. As with all of Moore's work any truth he alledges to state in his films is only about 1/3 correct. He fails to tell the whole truth 100 % of the time.
Also, and this is slightly off track, he says he doesn't own any stock, thats bull%$%$%$%$. His production company, which is wholey owned by Moore owns several million dollars worth of stock. And guess what, the stocks are vizor (sic), merck (both pharmacuetical manufacturers), and others of whose hands he goes out of his way to burn in his movies to make his arguments/hysteria seem valid. He is a buffoon, liar, and hypocrite. It is easy to stand around and ridicule vitrtually anything, especially health care, because we all have a personal interest/risk in this regard. We all have horror stories to tell, as they relate to friends and familly members. And regardless of who you work for we all pay too much for insurance. I equate Moore with Ann Sheehan, someone who is too stupid to realize thier initial fame had to do with being used by the liberals.
One thing I keep telling myself in regard to medical care is that it is not an exact science, no two doctors are alike as are any two medical facilities. When my wife had a mastectomy/then chemo 12 years ago I firmly believe that it was my wifes faith in herself that brought her through the ordeal. She looked me in the eye and said it was not going to beat her and it didn't. That does't come in any insurance policy. You can't buy it. Attitude quite probably is the best medicine thier is.
