A review of SiCKO

From nyceve: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2007/6/13/0623/68223

I don't know whether to be excited or afraid. I don't expect the movie'll tell me anything new (I, Miss Extreme who moved countries because of healthcare) but I don't know how anyone could watch it without, perhaps, feeling sick.

Lame sidetrack: There was an episode of the Gilmore Girls season where Lorelei walked into her best friend Lane's room, and Lane is under the weather. The shot the audience gets is Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11" poster on Lane's door, and Lorelei going "Hey, sicko." I always wondered if it was a plug for Moore's latest... Yeah, deep thought, eh?

On the downer side, nyceve covers the cost of anti-nausea medication for chemo patients in the US and contrasts it with the cost of them in Canada. I know you know they'll be cheaper up north, but did you know how much cheaper?
