Michael Moore’s Health Challenge

According to Affordable Health Insurance, there are 45 million uninsured Americans. The health reform bill is a step in the right direction, and a step I’m sure Michael Moore is proud to see in action!

However, there is much work to be done. HR3962 is the most recent bill, which the AARP has endorsed because of its ability to help the Medicare system. The bill will require businesses to provide health coverage to their employees, but it also exempts businesses with payrolls less than $500,000 from providing such coverage.

You can learn more about H.R.3962 here, at the Library of Congress. Good luck in your research!

It’s the challenge of a century, and the movie “Sicko” helped us become aware of the dire need to change our health care system.  How can this be achieved? We need to improve our health to ensure that we won’t end up in a hospital — or even without health insurance due to a debilitating “pre-existing condition.”

If you believe in the goals of this cause, you can send your own personal letter to Michael Moore, encouraging him to improve his own health as an example to a “sick” nation.  Let’s change the face of American health care, little-by-little. The small things count!
