Lawrence O’Donnell talks with Michael Moore, Academy Award-winning film maker, who is much loved as well as hated for showing the seamy side of American politics, corporations, banking, and now our desperate need for health care, a goal seeming within reach but ruined by the deep pockets of insurance companies, lobbyists, and our elected representatives who can’t resist either one. The Republican resistance to bi-partisan cooperation has been the final nail in the coffin of millions of Americans if the bill passes in it’s present form. Moore’s most recent film "Sicko" has brought him even closer than his initial investigation, as Americans email him daily telling him their stories of how the lack of health care, or abuse from insurance companies has ruined lives, families, and caused thousands of unnecessary deaths.Moore discusses why the bill in it’s present form is not the help we need, but will only empower insurance companies – the exact opposite of what the original bill would have accomplished. In fact, the bill further empowers insurance corporations to abuse and drop patients. Moore makes a donation to the National Association of Free Clinics in honor of Theodore Olbermann who passed away last week. The clinics have been seeing huge numbers of people from all walks of life, with one common denominator, no access to health care for myriad reasons, an enormous wake-up call to all but our elected officials, it seems.
