    Michael Moore's SicKo

    I am busy watching this documentary and one has to feel sorry for all those Americans that their current health system.

    In South Africa we have health insurance for those of us who want private hospitals or personal health care. If you cant afford the health care schemes here in South Africa we do offer a basically free public health care services to the poor.

    Its a pity to see the American health care system in such a mess.

    Well done to the canadians on having such a great health system. Its a model the rest of the world can hope to match.

    I hope americans can lift up their health care and government services to equal that of countries like France, Canada and Great Britain. There is a real lot to be learnt in watching this documentary.

    I hope america will take note of this shameful state it finds its health system in. Thank goodness I dont live there.

    As Moore says, we live in a world of "We", not "Me".

    America is the only western country in the world without free health care.

    And what a coincidence we have the best healthcare in the world.

    Moore is a debunked, liberal propagandist who hates America, Bush, Republicans, and everyone else who disagrees with him.

    He is a national embarrassment.

    We already have a new thread on this. And don't feel sorry for us. We are just fine thank you. Most of us don't want free, socialized medicine. Everytime the government gets involved in ANYTHING here it becomes a disaster. We don't want cheap, unqualified doctors doing our work. We want the best and we'll pay for it.

    Google him. Do the research. His "documentaries" have an anti-America, anti-Bush, pathetic political liberal agenda. He is currently under investigation for travelling to Cuba in violation of American law. He is an abomination of a human being and an open wound on America's face.

    He has about as much credibility as Crystal Gail Mangum.

    are you stupid the american health care systems ass backwards first it focuses on curative medicine which is a lot more expensive. our system is set up for the benifit of the medical industry not your average american yes the other systems have rtheir flaws but in ther long run the other systems are better. i mean americans spendature on healthcare probably would be halved at least if we switched to prevenative medicine in fact i'm seriously thinking of declaring my candiandian citizenship so as to get access to the candian healthcare system

    The real embarrassment is the fact that you call yourself a 1st world country and have such shocking health care, the US health system and government is an embarrassment to all 1st World Countries. And so is Australia with its refusal to acknowledge that wrong has been done and with its hypocritical refugee policies.

    Moore uses humor in a masterful way to make people notice, otherwise the ties that G.W. Bush had with the Saudi's would have been a footnote in some historian's book. Research ? Yep he did his research, Moore has been proved right in more cases than he has been wrong.

    Is everything Anti American always wrong Sandy ?

    Im sorry, your retarded comment begged a response. First off you americans have many services socialised. The police force, the firemen the library.. etc. GET A CLUE.

    Watch the documentary get a clue about the rest of the world. As the only western country without free health care I dont think you have any moral high ground to stand on.

    Even Cubans get cheaper health care.

    They say you can judge a country on how they cheat their weak. Shows where you stand. Sis! You are officially the most ignorant female I have ever known, and living in Africa I thought I had met them all *sigh*

    americans go to cuba all the time or have you not been in a college and looked at the study abroad selections he probably contacted the state department to ask permission to go and he probably got. i've seen all his movies and have yet see anything anti-america in them. the anti-bush thing is a plus for him in my book. and he is trying to make america a better place which is far better then the conservative christian political agenda you seem to favor.

    '.. and the land of the free'

    Investigated for travelling to Cuba? What a crock of shit. Cold War revisionism trampling on your constitution and you bought into it. US Citizens have a right to free travel, and anyone who says otherwise is un-American, 'Sandy'.

    That would be your ignorance talking again. America has slid down to 52nd in the world for health service. But take heart, you are still better off than Slovenia!

    You need a major operation. Where you gonna go? India? France? I don't think so. You'll want desperately to have the best surgeons in the world. The ones in the USA.

    Listen I am not agreeing with Sandy, but....Moore is a king kong propagandist or perhaps just general bullshitter.

    I have a high standard though. If I catch a publication or documentarist in an outright lie - then it's propaganda.

    His bowling for columbine:

    Part where he is trying people's doors in DETROIT and seeing how locked up everything is, then goes across the river to Canada, well actually Windsor ontario(pop 100000) and finds people leave their doors unlocked. Bullshit, and so what compare a 7000000 metro to 100000 small city.
