Re: "The highly paid lobbyists, and health care for profit, spin doctors are hard at work."

Ad-hominem, so basically irrelevant. Deal with the argument not the person. The people making the arguments I linked two aren't a bunch of evil dishonest people, and even if they where that wouldn't automatically make them wrong.

Also if making money off of the ideas they present was a disqualification we would have to ignore all of Moore's movies. He makes a lot of money from them.

I don't want to pay to see his movie, because I personally don't care for him or his style, but I'll address any argument he raises, I don't say the arguments are wrong just because he makes them, and certainly not because he makes money from making them.

As Moore suggests, take the profit out of your healthcare system and put back into the real needs of the citizens and watch it soar.

Taking the profit out of something is rarely a way to improve it. Far more often it damages it, often severely.
