Sicko

Michael Moore took a group of patients who could not receive proper medical treatement in U.S. to Cuba, who has one of the (claimed) best health care systems in the world, and where the Moore group all received good medical cares. Some of them broke into tears at the unbelievable free or extremely cheap costs.
He should also bring the patient to China, and look at how people their are being treated in hospital. China is becoming more capitalist than any other developed countries. Very little of socialism remains there now. At the same time, most of the developed countries are benefiting from the changes in China, except most of Chinese. I am saying "most of Chinese" because only a small percentage of Chinese have become finacially rich and are enjoyinging a better life than even most of middle class people in developed countries.
No matter how dramatization or exaggeration Moore has done, I believe that there are many serious problems in America's medical system, in similar ways to other systems. One of the problems is that the mass media is still under control or influence from the government, directly or indirectly. The direct influences come from the nemerous lobbyists from all kinds of rich companies, who will do anything to divert government policies toward their benefits. Indirect control or influences come in more tricky forms, much more so than those adopted by Chinese government. So tricky that most of American believe that Chinese government is a dictortatorship and terrorist, whereas US government is the opposite.
