We did have a thread on Sicko -- but the topic is worth revisiting........the older I get, (which is happening with monotonous regularity....) the angrier I get about Health care - or lack thereof - in the US. The NHS is not perfect but , as Leadfingers pointed out -- if you are ill you can go to the doctor and not risk being bankrupt........now HOW can that not be a good thing.
I don't know about Sicko being propaganda, Janie -- from my experience of living in the UK and the US I thought it was darn accurate.
