Michael Moore examines our health care system compared to others around the world. Although they pay a lot more in taxes, their benefits far outweigh ours
He also goes into many sad stories about HMOs holding back money, leaving millions in debt or dead. Meanwhile, lobbyists help corrupt politicians (Republicans and Democrats) into giving more control to HMOs and drug companies.
Moore takes several sick Americans to Havana, where they are treated for free.
He concludes that since Americans aren’t afraid to accept foreign products (cars, electronics, etc.), they shouldn’t be scared to change the way they treat their sick.
