Noted Expert Michael Moore on the Future of Healthcare

By blackhedd

Both Democratic Presidential candidates have been attacked from the left, regarding their proposals for reforming healthcare in this country. The fire comes from the (substantial) person of Michael Moore, who by virtue of having made a tendentious movie on the subject, is now considered by many to be an important expert.

Not many people actually saw Moore's movie (it only grossed $24 million), but here's a hint for you: if you honestly believe that Cuba has the best healthcare in the world, you'll probably agree with Moore. (Believing the UN's surveys of healthcare around the world doesn't count, because they take the Cuban regime's statistics at face value.)

Moore wants you to know that both Clinton and Obama's health care proposals would be good for the hated health insurance industry. (Heaven forfend!) He intends to withhold his (undoubtedly valuable) endorsement of a Democratic contender until one or both of them change their policy prescriptions to suit him better.
