Michael Moore “Sicko” lives up to Lenin’s dictum

MTV‘s excellent review ‘Sicko’: Heavily Doctored shows Michael follows Lenin’s timeless advice to socialists :

We must be ready to employ trickery, deceit, law-breaking, withholding and concealing truth. We can and must write in a language which sows among the masses hate, revulsion, scorn, and the like, towards those who disagree with us.

MTV links to a video Dead Meat “which shows the reality of health care under Canada’s socialized medical system: Canadians wait … and wait … and wait. … And sometimes they die while waiting for free government health care.”

I know these delays are so extreme that the Quebec Supreme Court ruled that the system, which criminalizes any private medical care or insurance, violates Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms because it actually causes people to die.

This is explained well by Sheldon Richman head of the Foundation for Economic Education in his To the Medical Socialists of All Parties “All resources are limited—otherwise they are not resources.” Elsewhere I have heard the succinct observation that resources will be rationed; the only issue is whether by prices determined a free market place, or by waiting lines or political preference or connection.

The FEE talk by Jane M. Orient, M.D, is also a good listen
