Can you believe in America (the richest country in the world that spends the highest amount in the world on healthcare) as many as 60 million people are without healthcare and many more live in poor health due to the totally broken healthcare system? Who is to blame? Mostly Republican politicians who are in bed with healthcare companies, pharma companies, and doctors to deny access to basic health services. And Michael Moore, the film director who is never afraid to take on controversial topics, has come up with "Sicko," a remarkable movie that highlights the challenges of people like you and I. Watch this video clip of what he thinks about the film.
As can be expected, healthcare is a sensitive issue for politicians. While Republicans will do anything to deny Americans the right to see a doctor when they need it, the Democrats have been desperately fighting for decades to give that right. Naturally, as a presidential election approaches, it is already forcing politicians to speak about an issue that matters most to Americans: access to a doctor. Watch this another video about presidential politics.
