Exactly.
So many people miss the point.
He is shining a light on an issue in
hopes of getting more people involved in
the discussion. Obviously, the more educated
and aware you are, the more likely you are
to accept "agree to disagree" because you
acknowledge and accept all the various agendas, differences, "moving parts." What
sucks in this country right now is the fundamental
fear of debate. There is power in listening to
others and giving thoughtful examination to views that are contrary to your own. The more you know...
Anyway, he has to be extreme because it's a
"left or right" "with us or with the terrorists"
"pro science or God-fearing" "black or white"
country...and ever more so...not to mention his
medium of choice is inherently passive (viewer) and therefore must be ever more dramatic (story/subject) just to get people in the door and keep them captive.

Ok enough rambling from me. Thanks, Andrea.
For some reason, I feel compelled to add this quote:

AH.com: Agreed on all points, KatyO!

Right on! Michael Moore's film was quite amazing. Having lived outside this country for a while and seeing how well "socialised" medicine functions (although not perfect) makes me quite depressed that the U.S.A. cannot seem to get their shit together to take care of its own people.

This movie really made me want to move back to the UK. I hope, if nothing else, that this movie will bring about some form of discourse on the possibility for a healthcare system for all. This country needs it.
