WILL THIS NEW MOVIE BY MICHAEL MOORE BE TRUTHFUL? OR MORE DISTORTED FACTS?


[+] serious ballot by jappy
ACTIVE Sat May 12, 07 - Thu Feb 04, 10

It will be interesting to see how this new movie from Michael Moore takes on a topic like the health care system in the United States. His movies can hardly be called documentaries without laughing, considering that he cuts out snippets of what he wants people to hear, addes in pieces of tape here and there, to distort reality into the fiction that he wants people to see.

Health care in the United States is the best in the world, as is evidence by those who have 'free' health care in their countries who have the money to come to the United States to have their procedures done, like many Canadians do.

There are many issues that should be addressed to help lower income people get quality health care, there have been promises from all sorts of people, but the one thing it comes down to is this: no one has done much of anything to make it happen, put the promises in one hand and take a shit in the other and see which one fills up first.

Moore has embraced a lot of politicians during his last work of fiction, all on one side of the political spectrum. Is there any reason to believe that Michael Moore will be truthful in his findings in this new movie, or will this just be yet another unfortunate work of fiction, a collection of distorted facts and partisan finger pointing?

It will truthfully examine and not lay partisan blame
It will lay partisan blame and distort reality

Moore is the liberal version of Ann Coultier, which is amusing to me.

... except Moore doesn't label presidential candidates as 'faggots' and people who disagree with the current administration as 'traitors'.

whatever

BBC, Mojo, yes, the admin is incompetent, but Moore does have a tendency to selectively edit what he wants the public to see and not see.

Michael Moore is partisan. However, laissez-faire health care is great for the rich, expensive for the middle class (especially since many companies cut health benefits and raise co-payments) and destructive for the poor. Also, the poor only get emergency medical care instead of preventive medicine. Emergency room care is much more expensive, and the costs often get passed on thru health insurance companies to corporations to the consumer. So if Moore is partisan, that doesn't mean he's always wrong.

"It will expose this administration's failure and ineptness to develop a comprehensive Health Care system..."
BBCakes

What, as opposed to all the other administrations before it that were successful and deft in developing a comprehensive health care system?
by Bostonian on Sat May 12, 07 5:31pm [+]

That's my issue with it Bostonian. I don't believe free health care can work here any better than in Canada, but there should be more restrictions on health care being "for profit" on the actual 'service' side, if you will. Low income people should still have to pay something for it, but it should be like a 20 dollar copay and then discuss whatever the monthly charge to cover your family is, based on how much income you make.

There is honestly no reason a husband and wife making 35,000 a year between the two of them should be paying 800 dollars just for the coverage, let alone having the 3000 dollar deductable which effectively f'ing boots the health care to totally useless unless you are gambling on a catastrophic injury or illness.

For the average Canadian, the universal health care system works well. In fact, surveys show that is the government service they would least like to lose.

The rightwing propaganda machine has convinced many middle and lower class Americans that no coverage is better than basic coverage.

Go Michael.
by cranky on Sat May 12, 07 7:27pm [+]

Boston, the present administration has destroyed this country in many areas and on many levels. You have decided to remain blind to that fact...

aya, that is your opinion and you know what they are like...

Hey Mikey, put some of that mustard on a dog for me pal 025

by Barbara_Baby_Cakes on Sat May 12, 07 8:41pm [+]

Just looking at Michael Moore says enough about America's health care system.
by Warden on Sun May 13, 07 1:36am [+]

The movies are not meant to be viewed as conventional documentaries. Moore inserts himself and his opinions into his movies (starting with Roger and Me). I don't know if this is going to be a partisan attack like Fahrenheit 9/11 and unlike Bowling for Columbine--which made some interesting points about how the (media) helps breed fear. But I don't really see what the big deal is with Michael Moore. If he's so bad, don't see the movie. You can escape the wrath of Moore. It is harder to avoid Administration rhetoric and propaganda.
by Applerod on Sun May 13, 07 2:51am [+]

It amazes me when people totally discount Moore's work... as if there were absolutely no truth to his documentaries, at all... talk about partisan!
