Precis:
There are almost at least 50 million people in America who are uninsured. Michael Moore interviewed people who were insured but who were denied proper coverage by their health insurance. Michael Moore goes to the United Kingdom and talks to doctor about the health care, and the doctor gives him a whole speech on how the government pays for the health care and how people aren't charged for seeing the doctor. Michael Moore states the poorest people in the UK live longer than the wealthiest people in America.
Evidence:
Michael Moore mentions the poorest people in the UK live longer than the wealthiest people in America. Michael Moore also interviewed this mother whose daughter died because of her healthcare who didn't want to cover her because they didn't think her daughter needed the that the hospital was going to give her. Those pieces of evidence helped support his thesis because it shows one that healthcare doesn't care if somebody is dying and needs help and that all they care about is money. And the evidence also shows how the UK has one of the best health systems then America does, since Michael Moore implied that the poorest people in the UK live longer than the wealthiest people in America.
Response:
While watching this movie i was filled with pain because noticing how healthcare companies could care less if you live or die was pretty crazy to hear. I always thought that healthcare will always supply you with what ever you wanted if you were sick, but now by watching this movie i came to the realization that its not all cookies and cream when it comes to healthcare. Healthcare companies around the world are full of greed and they care all about the money that they don't have so they can't help people who are dying because of money issues. Considering that i have blue cross blue shield and i suffer from back pain it makes me think that if i ever needed surgery for my back, would my healthcare company pain for my medical expenses?
