I recently rented the movie and thought Moore had some very good points. Looking at the developing crisis in healthcare in the US and the loss of insurance, out of sight drug costs and folks without any health insurance coverage, I believe it is time to re-examine our national priorities and to re-visit Universal healthcare for all. At least folks should view Moore's film and see what has been accomplished in France, England and Canada and Cuba. Maybe there is a better way.
The old arguments about socialized medicine no longer are relevant in my opinion. What happened to the promises to give all of us the same coverage as the members of Congress? We would be fortunate to have the same treatment as do the detainees in Gitmo, according to Moore.
I would hope that seasonal visitors from England, Canada and France would offer their opinions based on their experiences, to this discussion.

I'm a right wing wacko from way back.... apple pie, guns, a pick-up truck, a cold beer and country music.... BUT... our health care system is BROKEN... it is a fragmented, expensive, inefficient system. I (gulp) support a single payor system similar to Canada/Great Britain.
