[QUOTE="LotusBud, post: 1029654, member: 1123"] Michael Moore's[I] Sicko[/I], released in 2007, examines the U.S. health insurance and pharmaceutical industry in a comparative study with the universal health care systems in Canada, the U.K. and Cuba. It was nominated for best documentary at that year’s Academy Awards. Moore went on to write that many of the requests inquired whether he would condemn the murder of Thompson. “After the killing of the CEO of United HealthCare, the largest of these billion dollar insurance companies, there was an immediate OUTPOURING of anger toward the health insurance industry,” Moore wrote. “Some people have stepped forward to condemn this anger. I am not one of them.” He went on to write that the anger is completely justified, and that “it is long overdue for the media to cover it. It is not new. It has been boiling. And I’m not going to tamp it down or ask people to shut up. I want to pour gasoline on that anger.” Moore wrote that the anger in question “is not about the killing of a CEO,” but “about the mass death and misery — the physical pain, the mental abuse, the medical debt, the bankruptcies in the face of denied claims and denied care and bottomless deductibles on top of ballooning premiums — that this ‘health care’ industry has levied against the American people for decades. With no one standing in their way! Just a government — two broken parties — enabling this INDUSTRY’s theft and, yes, murder.” [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.yahoo.com/news/michael-moore-says-not-tamp-190428345.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
