Mom, let's go to Europe to enjoy socialism

What I experienced in the United States was this:

(1) I slaughtered my fingers and ran into the emergency room at night. The angel in white was taken aback when seeing me dripping with blood. She said, come, weigh, measure your height, and wait another three hours.

(2) Later, only three stitches were applied to the fingers, and three bills swarmed in two months later. A total of 800 oceans. Later, I dazzled everybody: I ​​have a golden finger, and I have a golden finger.

(3) Toothache, toothache and headache, unable to take care of themselves even sleeping and eating. The dentist forced me to do a root canal treatment, nothing else, two thousand five. Insurance is busy declaring that we will not pay for it all. So I made a tearful decision. It will be cheaper to fly back and forth to China to see your teeth on weekends than in the United States.

The things I heard in the United States are as follows:

(1) People who are sick are not allowed to buy medical insurance, and it is also not allowed to buy it first and then get sick. In short, if you are sick, you are not good. This insurance cannot give you.

(2) You must buy special gynecological insurance for the birth of a baby, and it must be purchased in advance based on a woman's foresight N years ago. If you accidentally become pregnant, do you buy this insurance when you become pregnant? Ouch, what a pity.

(3) When you are sick to the point where the ambulance is coming, you must be sane and express your rejection. Most insurances do not cover ambulances, and one round trip costs one to two thousand. My American classmate stated clearly that if she is ill, she must lock herself up and she won’t be carried by the ambulance if she dies.

After watching this film, my dream has been strengthened even more. My dream is: It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. Viewed from the public, the United States is really lacking in a socialist style. I also pay so many taxes, income tax, consumption tax and property tax, which together basically share the spoils with the government. Germany has cut taxes non-stop, and Canada has cut taxes non-stop. Except for Japan, no major country in the world seems to have higher taxes than the United States. Bush took my money and he used my money to fight Iraq. After so many years, not only did the oil price not fall, but it also went up wildly. You said, what is there to wait for in this country? It costs 300,000 to go to Harvard. I said mom, let's pack up and go to Europe to enjoy socialism in a hurry!

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.
