The chances that 90% of you readers would ever see a Michael Moore movie is slim. I understand that.

He's made some inflammatory movies that have riled the right and for some, that's an unforgivable sin. But i find value in his films as he's one of the few out there willing to question, right or wrong, what many hold to be so dear to their hearts. He's taken on some big fights with the big three in Detroit, countless insurance companies, the NRA, the President, and now the healthcare debacle we find ourselves in now.

I'm betting most of you have already tuned me out, and that's fine. But you'll be missing one of this years' best films. In two words, you can describe his latest effort as "heart breaking."

Sicko is a film, not about those without health insurance, but about those who seemingly would be ok if disaster struck. For many like myself, we've never not had insurance and what insurance wouldn't pay, we've been able to. But for many, the cruelty of this world isn't easily covered by savings or family, but is taken fully on the shoulders by those whose need is what should be in the forefront.

There are many industries in America that are absolutely despicable and it seems that much of the ire Moore directs at the HMO's and big insurance companies are not hollow shots. The stories are absolutely heart-wrenching and brings to fully bear the notion that we live, not in the land of the free, but in the land that is ever increasingly cruel to those who need the help the most.

Democracy has not been kind to many in this country and it's time we stand up, as other countries have, and told our Government that we're tired of this shit where money rules supreme. We've lost all decency and it's not an issue that we can explain away. I've heard it said that most of our problems are because "we've taken God out of schools" and the such, but i find that hard to believe, when I drive through the parking lots of my church and see the millions of dollars of SUV's and luxury cars, while two blocks away, people live in squalor and bitter respite.

While we fight a "War on Terror", how about we stop and look around and see what we've done to this formerly fine country. We've reduced life into how much we individually have, not what we as a society have and that's terribly sad.

If you go see Sicko and you find it to be partisan and untruthful, I'll personally refund the price of your ticket. I'd be happy to if you can callously ignore this indictment of what cruelty we've come to ignore as normal business.
