Thoughts about the movie "Sicko"

If you have not seen "Sicko," it seems very much worth your while.
Michael Moore documents the situation in the U.S. with his usual humor
and even some restraint. He contrasts the fragmented provision of
health care in this country with that in England, France, Canada, and
Cuba. It will leave you wondering why the US has not yet found a way
to enact universal health care.

A bill currently in Congress would cover health care for millions of
uninsured children, but President Bush has said he would veto it.
There are not yet enough votes to override the veto -- and the Senate
may vote quite soon.

I signed a petition urging Congress to vote in support of this bill.
