Last eve I had the chance to see Michael Moore’s latest movie "SICKO”?
Yes it was one sided, but far easier and much more main stream than Fahrenheit 911.
It makes a person look at the Health care system of this country with new glasses and not rose colored I'm afraid. A totally new and different light. The rebuilding of Britain lead to such a different view of life and shows how profiting can be good for society as a whole, rather than an aristocracy.
What amazed me was the HMO as we know it today began in 1971. A long time in the making. So this will be a long time and not a gentle transition to right this wrong in my opinion.
California has three bills going before the legislature currently regarding health care. Two maintain the status quo, and only one is workable and equitable in my mind and that one is SB 840 written by Senator Kuehl.
I especially had no idea about, and was flabbergasted by the bit to "Star Wars" The Empire Strikes back I think, music when they rolled the pages and pages of industry proclaimed PREEXISTING conditions! UNbelievable truly. If you seen this movie please tell me if I have exaggerated anything here. We all know I love the drama, but for goodness sake did I exaggerate? FOR the preexisting conditions segment alone every one should see this move, if for no other reason.
The French doctor was quite interesting, for a socialized country, his life style, income and living and working conditions seem so what would one say, CIVILIZED? The British explanation of me and we was so very enlightening in the political history that was shared as to how their health care decisions came about following WWII. Fascinating really.
So if you have a chance to see this you owe it to yourself and your family to educate yourselves. If even 1/4 of the film is true and I believe it is more like 95%, -5% for dramatics, we are in huge trouble.
Our medical corporations are not only the tapeworm in our systems, their medications, may be making us sicker and strung out also, to boost the bottom line.
For your own health you might want to take a peak.
