Anyone watched SiCKO? Well it isn't released yet but somehow I
got hold of it. In a nutshell this is a documentary-movie. Talking
about the poor healthcare services in America.
One of the example is a guy, having his middle and no-name (or ring
finger) finger cut off whilst working with a machine. He lives in
US and has no healthcare insurance. The doctor asked him to choose
whether to reattach his middle finger for 60k or his ring finger
for 12k.
Over at Canada, one guy got his whole hand chopped off, and he paid
nothing to get his hand reattached back.
This movie is basically talking about FREE and FULL healthcare
coverage in Canada. And it goes sidetracking to talk about how
people in France get free college loans and stuff.
I mean, FREE healthcare man. Not our triple 'M's that our Singapore
system has. Yes, although their taxes are big, they still can
afford a big house, a car, food, and crap. Oh by the way, the
healthcare system isn't corrupted. The doctors put in passion in
their work, that is, helping patients to recover. No payments
needed for hospital stay, and there's only ONE CASHIER in the
general hospital. Which gives out money to patients to ensure that
they can get home via a public transport safely. I mean, wtf?
