RE: That sure is me!

No film in history is going to be loved by all. Moore's films have a political viewpoint and anytime that happens you will have reviewers with a different political view that will very likely will give a negative review. Movie critics are not exactly up to the standard of journalists and that's not saying much as the journalists if Sanjay Gupta is a good representative are pretty biased paid off individuals. Film critics are often paid off and so why would it be any different for political reviews.

Documentaries like Hostory books present a writer/director's bias. Moore makes no pretense for his film - he is telling one side - his side in order to combat the hundreds of millions spent on the other side. I amazed the other side even has a supporter.

I am not sure I get the argument FOR having a paid insurance private medical HMO?

The arguments I hear make absolutely no sense. You get to pick your doctor or hospital? But we get to that in Canada and it's free. And the word free is slippery for Americans to understand because we are taxed but does it not make a bit more sense to pay a bit higher tax to hedge your bets? I mean basically the higher tax is a safety net so that you when your wife or yourself has a heart attack and the HMO tells you that you need $487,000.00 for the medical bills you don;t suddenly find yourself taking out three mortgages and selling your car and asking the kids to support you.

The taxes may cost a couple grand a year more but the gamble is not worth it. It's like a warranty on your life. It's about the only warranty in the world worth paying for. But for some reason people think it's more important for doctors to own three homes 7 cars and 19 televisions and in order for that to happen the balance scale has to hit many other people in a negative way to the other extreme.
