Moore’s amazing follow up to Fahrenheit 9/11 is this time about the American Health Care industry, and it instead of being killed was in fact universally lauded, even liked by FOX News. This is an a film about the American Health Care system, ranked very low in the world, and the only high level country to not have a universal health care system. The film talks about the people unable to get healthcare, but mainly focuses on the people who have health insurance and who have been denied care for various reasons. It then goes into the universal health care systems of other countries like Canada, England and France. In fact the film is so powerful it made me cry, especially as an American with a pre-existing possibly fatal heart condition who is unable to get health care.

The film is at it’s most powerful when dealing with the heros of 9/11 who worked at ground zero, and were refused health care for their injuries. Moore decides to take them to Guantanmo Bay Cuba, where the terrorists get great health care, but they can’t even get close, so they go to the Cuban health care system, where all the people final get actual diagnosis and treatments for their conditions, which they could never get in the US. The Cuban firefighters then meet and honor these heroes. Amazing that a country that we call an enemy would care for our heroes for free when we would not.

Also seeing health care in France, it makes me want to move there, they treat their people so much better than we treat ours, no wonder conservatives hate France so much.

We need true universal health care, and with Hillary Clinton taking so much money from big pharmaceutical and Obama not having a true universal health care, I will probably remain uninsured for the time being. And this needs to change. This country need to change, and needs to have true Universal Health Care that will take care of not only the rich, but also the sick and the poor. Everyone should be able to get healthcare!
