Sicko': Heavily Doctored
Is Michael Moore's prescription worse than the disease?

Except of the above.



We're the only "modern" country that doesn't have universal health care.
They all must be wrong.


Erroneous thinking...a preponderance of the world is Asian....we must
change our genetics...a preponderance of the world is Muslim...we must
all become Muslims...

So, I guess it's ok with you if 12 million American children don't have
health care. Got it!

It's 8.9m and a goodly number of them ARE eligible for Medicaid or other
programs but aren't enrolled...thus making it an education problem, not
a healthcare problem...

To ameliorate the problem of those that don't qualify, legislation
should be passed that finds a way to take care of them...I've had
personal experience, on several levels, with Canada's national
healthcare system...it is not something I would want for myself or any
of mine (which is a joke because half my mother's side of the family is
in Canada...they can tell you some real horror stories about national
health care..) And why would you think our overburdened, bureaucratic
governemnt could hgandle anything like national health care? Expand
Medicaid. Expand Medicare. Nationalize insurance companies or
drastically change the way insurance companies are allowed to exist.
Those things are feasible. National health care, in our system, would be
a sorry mess.

So, you're talking about expanding a gov't program to include all. I'm for
it. "Expand Medicare"

Besides, those who do have coverage are at risk of losing it should they
lose their job, and they're at risk when insurance companies refuse to pay.

It's a program already in place and already working...reform it...

that's why there's COBRA...you have 18 months, and sometimes more, to
either get re-employed or find something else...

and they're at risk when insurance companies refuse to pay.

Refuses to pay for waht? Platic surgery? Breat enhancements? Viagra?
Quadruple by=pass on a 96 year old?

Cobra is great, but some employers don't offer insurance, so no Cobra.


and they're at risk when insurance companies refuse to pay.

There are many instances of insurance companies refusing to pay or burying
people in red tape. I'm sure you can find plenty of examples!

So maybe potential employees should pay more attention to the benefits
package employers offer? Or get a compensation package that allows them
to purchase their own insurance?

And is nationalized / socialized insurance is any better? Bureaucrats
are bureaucrats regardless of whether they are with private insurers or
work for a govt.

Canada is a great example of how nationalized insurance fails. They
offer all the problems of private insurance amplified by a
non-responsive govt bureaucracy.

Keep in perspective that Michael Moore is in business to promote his film.
