A/N: I'm moving to my blog at Tumblr now but I'm not going to delete my old blog at Blogger. It's got a priceless value and I'll leave it here for me, you and anybody who would want to read it in future.
SiCKO.

We watched SiCKO during SS today and all I have to say is that it made me stop and think. What do I know about healthcare in the world? And more importantly, duty is put into question. When I read through WLIIA?, I would note down the word, "duty", on a page or two. "Duty" can mean a different thing when put differently. Duty in WLIIA? is a question of the staff member's ability to think as a man or as a member of the staff. Duty in SiCKO is the question of what the staff member is working for; the money or to help one in need.
"It's not denying care; it's denying payment."
That statement hit home. I'm sure when I watched SiCKO, I wasn't the only one appalled by the American's way of managing healthcare. How can they be that inhumane to deny someone healthcare when they clearly need it? They denied them all in the name of money.
We haven't finished watching SiCKO yet but in the meantime I have this to say:
Ironically, I find I love SS and watch SiCKO; rent it at Video Ezy or something.
