#MichaelMoore telling it like it is:Here’s a sad statistic for you: In the #UnitedStates, we have a whopping 1.4 million people employed with the job of DENYING #HEALTHCARE, vs only 1 million #doctors in the entire #country! That’s all you need to know about #America. We pay more people to deny care than to give it. 1 million doctors to give care, 1.4 million brutes in cubicles doing their best to stop doctors from giving that care. If the purpose of “health care” is to keep people alive, then what is the purpose of DENYING PEOPLE HEALTH CARE? Other than to kill them? I definitely condemn that kind of murder. And in fact, I already did. In 2007, I made a #film – #SICKO – about America’s bloodthirsty, profit-driven and murderous health insurance system. It was nominated for an Oscar. It’s the second-largest grossing film of my career (after Fahrenheit 9/11). And over the past 15 years, millions upon millions of people have watched it including, apparently, #LuigiMangione.
After the #killing of the #CEO of #UnitedHealthCare, the largest of these billion dollar insurance companies, there was an immediate OUTPOURING of anger toward the #HealthInsurance industry. Some people have stepped forward to condemn this #anger.
I am not one of them. (Source) #FreeLuigi
