We don't have health care, we have health 'insurance,' of some kind, even if we're paying, as I am, $450 a month and it doesn't kick in until $2,000 are expended, and then covers, on paper, 80%. Actually obtaining health care is an entirely different matter, and involves herculean effort to get the insurance company to pay even the smallest bill. Look, this is the problem with the national health care debate, it still (despite Moore's best efforts) revolves around uninsurance, when it should revolve around the insurance companies and what the fcuk are they doing there in our health care system anyway? Unite the many to defeat the few, rather than redefining the many as doing fine, against good evidence.

A boycott is not an individual moral question, it's a political tool. Very little of what you buy is produced under socialism, but don't worry, not buying it will not produce socialism.
