I don’t know if any of my readers have heard of Michael Moore. You might now him from the movie Fahrenheit 9/11, which discussed the controversy and thoughts surrounding the 9/11 attack on the USA.
He has another movie out and if you live on America, you should see it. If you don’t live in America, you should thank god for where you live.
There is a health care crisis in the United States. We are robbed by our insurance companies and it’s not uncommon for people without insurance to be turned away when seeking medical attention in the US. This movie goes into detail about the USA health care crisis and the alarming death rate of US citizens when compared to the rest of the world. Even the people that have risked their lives to save others get refused healthcare. Our healthcare system is the most crooked in the world.
The US ranks 37th in quality of health care, just above Slovenia. Here is the list of all the countries that rank better than we do:
1 France
2 Italy
3 San Marino
4 Andorra
5 Malta
6 Singapore
7 Spain
8 Oman
9 Austria
10 Japan
11 Norway
12 Portugal
13 Monaco
14 Greece
15 Iceland
16 Luxembourg
17 Netherlands
18 United Kingdom
19 Ireland
20 Switzerland
21 Belgium
22 Colombia
23 Sweden
24 Cyprus
25 Germany
26 Saudi Arabia
27 United Arab Emirates
28 Israel
29 Morocco
30 Canada
31 Finland
32 Australia
33 Chile
34 Denmark
35 Dominica
36 Costa Rica
Are you shocked? You should be. The life expectancy of Americans falls well below that of the countries on this list.
In France, for example, you get paid for any sick day that you take. You are able to receive assistance from the government in the form of a part time nanny if you have an infant. You get a free education (up through and including college). It is absolutely astounding to this American what other countries have that we do NOT.
We are the only country in the WORLD that runs healthcare like we do. We do not take care of our homeless and elderly, and if they do receive healthcare, when they are discharged, they are dumped on the streets if they have no where to go.
I’m not going to run down the entire list of atrocities here, but I urge you to see this movie. It is on sale at Amazon for $5.99, so please watch it and share it with your friends. Is it sensationalism? No….it’s the flat out truth. I sat and sobbed after I watched this movie. It is disheartening. After my relatives are gone in this country, I am out of here, to move abroad. We’ll sell the house and leave. I will not continue to remain in this country and be treated this way.
