Sicko

Seriously... it's not just some left wing michael moore bull**** film. I can see why even fox news gives it amazing reviews. There are some flaws in the movie that i detected that were michael moore bull**** at it's finest, but most of it hits home to all of us. Seriously if you have the time go watch it

Just so I understand, it's called "Sicko"?

Is this the one about H.M.Os, I heard that he paid the medical bills on the guy that runs the anti Michael Moore web site?

yup it's not mainly about how other countries have free health care... it's more about the majority of americans who THINK they have health care then when they need major help(life/death scenarios) their health care denies them. One person they interviewed lost her husband when her husband needed bone marrow, they said they needed a perfect match. well her husbands brother was a perfect match. so they were soo happy then blue cross denied her and said it was to experimental. her husband died a few weeks later.


Ya.. The guy who runs the #1 anti-Michael Moore site was about to close down his site I guess, because his wife got screwed by a HMO, and wouldn't pay for the bill, so he couldn't afford the site anymore. So Michael Moore sent him 12,000 dollars anonymously. He showed the quotes from the guy saying a Guardian Angel sent him money so he was able to save his wife's life... prettyamazing ****


I wanna know what guy is gunna do now that he realizes it was Michael Moore who essentially saved his wife's life

He didn't get screwed by the HMO, he just couldn't afford to keep the site up. Then Michael Moore gave him the money just to kinda say, Here ya go. The guy isn't anti-Michael Moore, he's anti- the way Michael Moore does things and blows things out of proportion. There was a whole article and interview with the guy. Michael Moore also did it because the guy gives him publicity.

it makes life more interesting and opposing points of view are always never a bad thing. michael moore is one of those people who, like me, enjoys having enemies.

the blatently stupid example I saw was France. They have stupid ****ing high taxes along with stupid high sales tax etc. He asked a family that makes WELL above average(100k+ our money), if they were suffering because of taxes.

If you make over i think 150k you are in the top 10% of the population income wise, so the fact they only live in an apartment with two kids, says a little bit about their taxes....(granted france is really expensive)...



that being said, you michael moore haters can root for him to go to jail for the whole cuba thing in the movie
