That's such a broad and general statement...

"america is so fucked up, and we can thank big corporations for that."

Maybe I can agree or disagree with you.

it's the corporations that payoff politicians to do what THEY want...
it's the corporations that get money from the government...

the way that big corporations like that hurt america is that they get so damn greedy about everything...looking at their clients like they're not patients who needs care...etc.

these large corporations that get payouts and benefits from the government are the ones who really control everything.

i'm really bad at putting it all into words.

You can't blame everything on them though. Don't you think that if the client/patient had the opportunity to they would take advantage as well?

The only difference is they didn't have a choice.

even if someone DID take advantage, it would probably be a very small amount, and even so, at least then everyone would have a chance.

the US is the only western nation that doesn't have universal healthcare. other nations not having PERFECT healthcare isn't even the point. even at their most broken point, they're still miles ahead of the U.S.'s.

it's sickening.

The whole healthcare thing is a predicament. I don't want to pay for other people's, and I don't want them to pay for mine, but I can't pay for my own. However, Michael Moore is full of shit and I hate him, he is the worst 'documentarian' that ever lived.

downwithflames June 15 2007, 20:22:28 UTC

well, you pay for the police, firemen, and the postal service, why not healthcare?

35mmdreams June 15 2007, 20:38:02 UTC

touche.

that's exactly how every other western nation does it, so, it has to work better than the SHIT That is happening now, and has happened since the 60s or so.

Hey, call me cuz I need your phone number!! scooterpuff_jr June 17 2007, 07:43:51 UTC

Michael Moore is getting SOOOO rich off of other people's problems, and doing pretty much nothing proactive about it. Except hoping that schmucks like you and I will protest it; and then the politicians will ignore it.

You want to stop being mad at society? Move to Canada.
The U.S. is going to turn into Mexico soon, anyway. Shit.
