Well, the more information you gain on a topic the closer you can come to the truth surrounding that issue.
Here in the U.
S.
we are told many things through the media that we naturally assume to be fact and many of these things that we are told work to make the U.
S.
look like the best and most advanced nation in the entire world but a quick glance around and a little investigation can sometimes unearth a different set of truths.
For instance one of the things that our government would like all Americans to believe is that socialized medicine is bad.
They use the guise of communism and government control to make people think that this type of medicine would be a bad thing or is something undesirable.
They tell stories of doctors being controlled, not making any money, and of patients dying while waiting for treatment.
They say that a government health care plan very simply won't be as effective as the plan currently in place and that Americans will wind up paying more for health care in the form of taxes than most are currently paying now.
This story has found a home in our national consciousness and for decades we have allowed this point of view to become the undisputed truth without question.
However, a recent documentary movie called Sicko is beginning to change the direction of the tide.
It is stocked with interviews of doctors and medical professional and patients worldwide that are currently using the socialized medical system as their primary health care system with little to no complaints.
Doctors are pleased with the way they are treated by the government, knowing they will be compensated fairly for services rendered.
Patients also enjoy a system that is very simple and straightforward to use.
They can easily see a doctor of their choice anytime there is a medical need in need of attention, and this is regardless of their income.
The door is open for them to see the doctor, receive the treatment without hesitation, and receive the services with little to no problems associated with the health care services.
It would seem that the only losers are those in other types of medical care systems and plans and clearly the real winners in the U.
S.
care system are those who refuse to consider any changes that will bring health care cost down to an affordable level, which they are fiercely refusing to do.
The old arguments that government run health care doesn't work well or serve the people well, is getting pretty tried and lame.
It has for years, served countries like Canada, Cuba and many other nations well with impressive results.
The propaganda machine is unwilling to give up the golden goose egg and continue to make trillions off of sickness in America, if it means having to forfeit their own interests and greed.
