That's an understatement for sure.

This country needs to stop sending billions overseas to "save" others(including illegals here)from poverty and bad healthcare and start taking care of our own.

the idea is not that quba is so great, it is that at least cuba does not refuse ANYONE treatment because they are not insured or do not have the money/insurance for treatment.

the same with Canada, Great Britan, France and a list of other countries. i believe usa was ranked 27'th in the world for health care.

CNN suposedly fact checked this movie and has proven Moore's facts and points are not distorted.

not trying to stir a political debate or love/hate michael moore thread here. I really could care less about him either way.

I'm simply stating the movie was worth watching.

Mike - you are right on. It would do everyone good to see that movie. Our healthcare system is one that not only screws the people, but also is driving the doctors out. I just had to change my primary after 25 years because he cannot fight the HMO's to get the treatment his patients need.
