HW#25 - Response to Sicko

1.)Not everybody in the United States can afford health care and at that do not meet the certain requirements to recieve it. There have been many causes where people do not recieve medical assistant because of their well being and some end of dying because of the health care rules and obligations which in the end benefits them and only them. The health companies recieve loads and loads of money from rejecting people which saves the money and they take it. Even people who have health care run into technical difficulties. Not everything is guartaneed. In Canada they recieve a whole lot of medical attention no matter what unlike the U.S. and at cheap rates. No matter what your condition is you will be seen and helped. Just like Canada, In Europe no matter who you are, what color you are are you will be treated if you sick and on top of that it is free. The doctors are at your door to help with anything with any circumstances you are in.

2.) -Even the poorest people in Britain are healthier than the wealthest people in America.
-For every Congressmen there are four health care members

Both of these evidences were important towards Michael Moore's thesis because in American Society lots of the congressmen and health members are teaming up to make themselves wealthier while there are people in need of health issues and it causing them to become more sick and die. Britain, people are getting more help than most americans and they are healthier. Michael Moore's is saying that as americans we don't the treatment we are needed and we are spending lots and lots of money on unneccesary things.

C&D (Not Done)

3.) While watching the movie, i didn't know that you had to meet different requirements in order to qualify to get health insurance. I thought that was unfair to a lot of people and limited very few and at that even if you have health care you might recieve everything you need. I've had health care all my life and got help everytime i've been sick and needed assistant but im still woundering all they really telling and giving me everything i need in order to saty healthy. For example, there were these people who had these sicknesses and their health care said it was just "experimental" not much of a big deal and one lady actully died. I was just in shock. The story of the daughter who wasn't going to get the sugery to get her ear implant reminded me of the story of the little boy who died from eating the beef because both parents were defending their children. In the end the father was able to get his daughter's help by exposing the health company. It's funny how quickly people change their mind when people will find out the true. I never really thought health care industry was that bad until seeing that video especially comparing America to Cananda and Europe. It makes me want to move to Europe and recieve health care there because i know i would be guarauntee help when i am ill.
