Michael Moore has done it again. His movie Sicko shows what the Medical Industry and Big Pharma are up to and have been up to for years. (evidently since the Nixon Presidency) Michael exposes the greed going on in corporate medicine. That is the only consideration. The bottom line. It is all about the money. They just don't care. People are treated in prisons better than people with no insurance on the street. Canadians do not pay for health care. All Canadians' medical and pharmaceutical needs are provided free by Canadian Health Care .
Sicko is shining the light of visibility on the health care industry. Actually it functions more like a disease care industry. It's practices are inhumane. The movie makes it clear that the medical industry does not care for patients who have no money. Michael filmed one hospital dumping a disoriented elderly woman who had no money to pay her bill in the middle of the streets of East L.A. But, do corporate hospitals care? It is one less person taxing their company. Hey, at least they gave her a ride out there.
The doctor's and nurse's do care. It is just their hands are tied by procedures and policies that the corporate CEO's and CFO's lay down.
