However biased Mr. Moore's opinions and views are, it is balanced on the Right by demagogues who present THEIR blinkered view from the Right with at least as much misinformation or just plain ignoring anything that doesn't fit their world view as anything from the Left.

The day we wake up over here, and start to question our politicians and economic system about the realization that we are NOT 'the best' at almost any health care category will be the day the country perhaps adopts a system that works better. As Taike said, the lead cart shows the way. but ONLY to following carts that have their eyes open and their ears unstopped. Close your mind tight, and only listen to those who bellow platitudes about us always being #1 at everything, and it is easy to fool yourself into thinking you actually ARE the lead cart...

It is funny. Americans LIKE to be #1 in sports. If they aren't, in any anything they care about, they will spend their way to #1. But the health of our citizens? Happy in the teens...

Maybe mediocrity IS the American Way?
