> PS. Squiggles - I assume you've seen 'Sicko'?? - is it as bad as it suggests in the US? How did you find the film? I felt it idealised the UK NHS somewhat as mental health care really isn't up to much, from my experience - but perhaps Brits are too critical of their health system in light of others. It was a really interesting and shocking film, I must admit.

It was definitely propaganda, but if it is true as Michael Moore portrays that Americans are sinking in their ability to get quality health care, it was good propaganda as a wake-up call for the country. I live in Canada and I think our province is excellent and getting better-- we have a shortage of drs., that's the problem. I do not know what it is like in the UK, but it sounds ideal and even better than it is in Canada and Australia. I think Moore perhaps does not take into consideration the fact that the US has such a huge population with many social problems, that other countries do not. Furthermore, with the current political events, there just isn't enough money to sink into that area of public health care needs. That would be my criticism-- that he did not expose the underlying social problems in the US that bring about public misery.
