Sicko of the Rich Getting Better Health Care
Recently, Paul Howard posted a Washington Post article to show America’s health care system is really the greatest health care system in the world, not the problematic, insensitive corporate machine concerned only about the bottom line, as Michael Moore proposes in his new movie, “Sicko“.
Howard tells us a “Story Michael More Didn’t Tell You” about a young girl who is diagnosed early and treated for a rare form of cancer. It’s a wonderful story. I’m sure everyone is happy that her life, and possibly her eyesight, have been saved by our “great system of health care”. I know I’m happy for her and her family.
But I have to point out the story that “Paul Howard Didn’t Tell You”, or more accurately, the point he blew over. This is the child of a rich and famous NBA player. Of course she received exceptional health care. In defending health care, Howard is actually helping Moore make his point. In America, if you’re rich, you are going to get Great Health Care. If you’re poor . . . not so much.
