"... we tell them 'Sicko' is a comedy about 45 million people with no health care"

No health insurance is not no health care.

If some healthy, single 28-year-old chooses not to pay $400/month for health insurance, that's his choice.

If that same 28 year old chooses to pay $50/month for cable/satellite, $35/month for cellphone, $40/month for DSL, $25/month for digital radio, $20/month for Netflix, cigarettes, etc. etc. it could also be called a matter of budgeting for priorities.

I was offered healthcare much cheaper than through employers When I was younger and always turned it down. I didn't think it was worth the money at the time and I don't remember missing it.
