The movie SiCKO I went, I saw, and I was conquered!
Yes, I came out of SiCKO more convinced than ever that single-payer is the only solution to Americas healthcare problems.
Come on! Were the wealthiest country on the planet. Why is it that Canada, Britain, France and even Cuba can deliver healthcare FREE! to all their citizens, and we cant?
Go see SiCKO and youll know the answer. Its because of the powerful opposition of insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies and big HMOs.
As long as theyre in charge, well never be able to deliver healthcare to all Americans. Because all they care about is the bottom line, not keeping people healthy.
One warning: When you see SiCKO, be prepared to cry, as you meet one American after another, even little kids, screwed by their insurance carrier or health provider.
Yes, SiCKO will make you cry. Itll also make you laugh. But mostly itll make you mad as hell. Which is what insurance companies are so worried about.
If enough Americans go see SiCKO, maybe theyll get mad enough to demand that Congress take some action.
WHAT AN IDIOT!!
What was the question? It wasn’t how to lose weight, obviously.
I would like to see how good his dental insurance is by kicking out his teeth for being such a damned idiot!
“May I be the first to say of Bill Press...
WHAT AN IDIOT!!”
I’ve heard him on the Radio. He’s a no talent bed wetter. Oddly enough, my Democrat brother thinks Bill Press is about the smartest man alive.
I guess that would explain why my brother and I don’t talk much anymore.
Bill please, we know you’re stupid quit trying to prove your point over and over and over again.
Anytime someone says something is the "only" solution, it usually isn't.
Bill Press is a communist, so this is no surprise.
Your’s is an excellent point lost on all those who think the government should/could solve all problems in society. When was the last time the government ever took over the operation of some entity and made it more efficient? I don’t believe any government can run an for-profit enterprise with any efficiency or cost savings.
He is a socialist twit.
I think government should provide all plumbing services. Why? Well water and toilet facilities are necessary, and these damn plumbers charge so much. I demand my free plumbing services and feel I have a right to them. Why cant the wealthiest country in the world provide free plumbing? We have all this money to waste in Iraq, yet poor citizens are forced to pay hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars for simple repairs. Is that fair? I feel so bad Im about to start filming my pet project Water Damage.Comment by Igor R. July 16, 2007 @ 5:51 pm
You're thinking of "FATSO"
press eats left wing shit like it was snack food-i never saw a bigger useful idiot,except possibly alan colmes
Another recent post is reporting that "Sicko" is a da bomb, both in box-office receipts and politically.
So yes, Bill, please continue to use this sham of a film as your one & only source of information.
They can’t and don’t deliver healthcare FREE you moron!!
Pets or Meat basically was the same movie a few years later.
I grew up in Detroit and saw what the mass exodus of low skill high wage jobs can do to a city. The workers never understood that high wage low skill jobs do not last forever.
Then Bowling for Columbine which was not funny and then turned unwatchable when Moore interviewed Charlton Heston who was so debilitated by Alzheimer's, I walked out.
Moore should have the same happen to him:
When he is to old and frail to know better someone with an agenda should do a documentary on him.
They should call it “Fatso”.
What was the question?
You want to ensure your safety? Pay $800
What will that get you? A good .45cal pistol.
