I think the main point of Moore's flick was that healthcare isn't evenly distributed here.
Access is the problem... not quality. The quality here is great, but that doesn't mean much to a good number of Americans.
Some Americans can't get insured no matter what - simply because they have diabetes, or some other common ailment, and make over $30k a year.
People's lives are being ruined while insurance companies and drug companies report record profits.
The average lifespan of Americans is, on average, lower than in other industrialized nations because of that crap.
If you don't think something's wrong with our healthcare system, either step out of your bubble and open your eyes (as I recently had to) or get your head checked, imho.
As far as those doc's... fuck 'em. "Do no Harm," my ass... assuming they're convicted, strip them of their license, and throw away the key, I say.
