There is an unholy triad in the United States that can advsersely affect your health, and, in some cases, even your life itself.
That unholy TRIAD, include health insurance companies, big pharmaceutical industry companies, and politicians, with a happy collusion with the American Medical Association.
This is nowhere more clearly laid out than in the Michael Moore film, SiCKO, which premiered on June 29,2007. As I write this, this is just one day after the premiere, i.e. Saturday morning early.
Interviewed on Larry King's show, live on Friday night, Mr. Moore indicated that preliminary ticket sales were extremely good, and surprising. He noted that he was surprised how well the film was doing because it was a documentary on healthcare, and not something one would describe as a summer blockbuster date movie.
I intend to see the film, but from the clips I have seen, if you are living in the United States, you NEED to get your eyes opened by seeing this film.
TWO THUMBS UP on SiCKO !
