SiCKo Forever

Finally got around to watching Michael Moore's film on PPV. Its a good piece of polemic because it drives home the salient facts. We Americans pay more for health care than anybody else in the world, yet we rank behind some developing nations in overall health of our citizens. Besides being upstaged by the socialized systems of Canada, Britain, France and Cuba, a nation we have subjected to a crippling economic boycott for half a century, the most salient fact I saw in the movie was the list of Senators receiving political contributions from the health care industry. First on the list for the largest amount was Pennsylvania Republican Rick Santorum. No surprise. In second place was Hillary Rodham Clinton. If you want at least as good a deal as the French get from their government, don't vote for Hillary. The healthcare executives expect something for their money. You won't see universal health care in this country under a Clinton administration, first or second term.
