Sorry, I thought it would take a little longer before google pulled it off the site. Anyway... the movie is about the American health care system compared to the Universal health care systems of other countries. I believe this movie, directed by Michael Moore, is supposed to be released in late June or early July. I think it will cause quite an uproar among the American population... as well it should.

NO DO NOT FEEL THAT WAY ABOUT THIS MOVIE WITH MICHAEL MOORE!!

I just got done watching it(no problem for me to get it up we have sattlelite)I'm totally disgusted with heathcare in America. I myself just completed my COBRA it will cost me $1000.00 a month for just my medications. Then it will be a year before my pre existing conditions to be covered. I'm ready to move to france, the UK , Canada even Cuba. They teach us in nursing school holism but I guess that doesn't account for our politicans. What really got me more than anything was the 9/11 workers who were sick and couldn't get help. I think EVERYONE should see this movie Than band together and make our government afraid of us. I better stop I could go on FOREVER. But 37th in the world that sucks!!:devil:

Hey biker nurse - are you saying that you have COBRA from your last insurance but that a pre-existing condition isn't going to be covered for a year? Was it covered under your previous insurance? If it was I'm almost certain that you don't have a wait period to be covered again.
