My statement is true because it reflects my honest opinion as one person who hasn't seen the fime. It would be a false statement if I said that I'm excited about seeing the film. I'm not. I may be getting to the point of just waiting for it to come out on DVD.
I'm extremely skeptical that this film will have any effect on public policy. It's preaching to the converted. Many Americans know what our health care system is like, so the film will succeed as agitprop only if it motivates people to direct action and protest.
What the Canadian man says could also be cast by universal healthcare opponents as Christian charity.
Other critics of Moore will point out that Americans already have universal access to health care. Any of us without healthcare can walk into a doctor's office and get treated. But we still have to pay and the issue is that those of us without health care insurance may not have the means to pay these medical costs.
