Head to Canada if you get "Sick"o

I went to see Sicko last night with Aker and Jason. I had my doubts about seeing this film, as well as struggling to stay awake. However, this film made many good points and shows people how screwed up America is when it comes to our healthcare. In Canada and many other countries, healthcare is free. You just go, get seen, and leave. No insurance info is needed, no money is exchanged. Can you imagine what that would be like? It really made me think of the conversation I had with my mom about getting my glasses and the cost of them. Mine were roughly 160 something-hers were 400.00 without insurance. I recommend this film to anyone who wants to learn about how screwed America is getting when it comes to the care of our people. Hope known of you are denied your claims due to a past yeast infection!

Thanks for the review. I plan on seeing it as well. I find it funny that people get up in arms when Americans talk about universal healthcare calling people like Hillary a slur of insults relating to socialism. Yet, many things, such as our education system, are universal and no one has a beef with them.
