Sicko is about people with insurance that have bad health care as a direct result of managed care, as I understand it. I work in the field so I have my own experiences to add to any perspective. I would hate to see you at a hospital admissions office telling people that yep, they need a life saving procedure but they are to stupid to figure out how to get care. Then you give them a health and drug care formulary and say: "Here study this". This is from another board: Here study this:

Healthcare
I believe the Canadian model is misrepresented in the USA Here in British Columbia, everyone pays $75 a month for health care…and often the employer picks up that cost as a benefit. The truly poor can apply to have welfare pay their $75. and the basic Canadian federal tax rate is: 0% for first $10,000
17% %for next $17,000
22% on the next $37,000
26% on the next $46,000
29% on anything over $120,000
so on $100,000 income, would pay $20,442 Basic US Income tax is :
10% first $7,000
15% next $22,000
25% next $44,000
28% next $75,000
33% next $150,000
35% anything over $336,000
so one $100,000 would pay $22,000
so Canadians not only get cheap and efficient health care, they pay less taxes overall.
why cant the USA get it together?
