nice and ironic

We are Chinese. When I watch this film, I think of China more or less. When Moore satirized the American medical insurance system with his usual sarcastic narrative, what I realized in my mind was a deeper level. Ironically, the United States in the film is like a purgatory on earth, while the medical insurance systems of other countries are like paradise. At this moment, I was thinking about a question, why not come to China to film? In the United States, Moore would have to travel a lot of states to find such unfortunate Americans who were harmed by the unreasonable medical insurance system; and if he wanted to come to China, he would have to travel all over China to find a lucky Chinese who was not harmed. The mainland, and it may not be found, as Chinese people, we should not be surprised by this. I saw the so-called "tragic situation" of the Americans, which is the "other side" that the Chinese cannot get for their whole lives, and the description in the film. The United Kingdom, France, etc., is a real paradise that the Chinese people never understand, right?

What I want to say is just one sentence, if the French and British watched this film, they might feel sorry or sympathetic for the Americans on the other side of the ocean, but as a Chinese, I have only one feeling after watching this film, Americans are There is no happiness in happiness.

There is still a Moore in the United States to discuss for them, who do we have?

Sicko quotes

  • Michael Moore: There are nearly 50 million Americans with no health insurance. They pray every day they don't get sick because 18,000 of them will die this year, simply because they're uninsured. But this movie isn't about them. It's about the 250 million of you who have health insurance. Those of you who are living the American Dream.

  • Michael Moore: I always thought health insurance companies were there to help us. So, I posted a note on the Internet asking people if they had had any similar stories.Within 24 hours, I had over 3,700 responses. And by the end of the week, over 25,000 people had sent me their healthcare horror stories. Some of them decided not to wait for me to get back to them. Like Doug Noe, who took matters into his own hands, without my permission. His daughter was nine months old when they discovered she was going deaf. His health insurance company, CIGNA, said they'd pay for an implant in only one of her ears. According to the letter they sent, it's experimental for her to hear in two ears.
