I know Michael Moore is really controversial. I also know that whenever someone tells a story they usually tell it from their point of view, so it tends to be one sided. Having said all this, I recently watched Michael Moore's documentary "Sicko" which investigates American Insurance and Healthcare and compares it to that of Cuba, France, Great Britain and Canada. I thought it was "thought provoking." Michael Moore makes a good point, and that is that we need to make some changes in our Insurance Bearaucracy and Health care management. Usually people have bad things to tell me when they hear that I've watched Michael Moore's movie. I'm trying to think beyond the man. He has a point when he says that we are supposed to be the richest nation in the world and yet we can't provide good healthcare to our citizens. Is it too idealistic to think that there's got to be a better way? And how do we find that "better way?"

I saw his interview on Oprah and though he made some great points too. I have not watched any of his movies. Thanks for sharing!
So I heard you guys have a blog and that I should check it out. It looks like it was good timing since you are on the health care issue. I agree with you something has too change, it needs to be drastic, but I doubt it will happen too quickly, too many people still lining their pockets. Hope you guys had a merry Christmas, have Steve e-mail me sometime since I don't have a current e-mail for him.
Take care
