'''SiCKO''' is a 2007 film by American filmmaker [[Michael Moore]] about the American medical system. The film has generated some controversy for a sequence in which Moore brings a group of patients to [[Cuba]], which may have violated the American embargo of that country. The film is designed to have a political impact, but both [[Republican]] and [[Democratic]] politicians have distanced themselves from it.<ref>http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-movie22jun22,0,5962985.story?coll=la-home-center</ref>   

'''SiCKO''' is a 2007 film by American filmmaker [[Michael Moore]] which uses the [[health care]] debate to critique the economic system of America (see [[free market economics]]). Moore unfavorably compares the American health care system to various other countries' systems of [[universal health care]].

 

The biggest weakness of the documentary is Moore's one-sided analysis. He emphasizes the bad points of American health care and the good points of the alternatives. His portrayal of health care in Cuba is a complete whitewash. <!-- Even Wikipedia agrees with that it's a whitewash, in an unusual departure from there incessant liberal bias. -->
