Certainly the industry makes profit in these countries, so Moore doesn't seem to be calling for a non-profit drug industry. He certainly called for a non-profit health insurance system, which would guarantee free medical care. In other countries drugs are paid for out of this government "nmon-profit" insurance system and they more closely regualte DRUG PRICES. So, I assume that's what Moore is calling for and what Oprah was saying "yeah" to, although she may not have thought it all out.PharmaGuyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10211557578124130640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8550428.post-75184906386060776282007-06-05T17:04:00.000-04:002007-06-05T17:04:00.000-04:00I have actually been in touch with "his people" wh...I have actually been in touch with "his people" who have promised a screening, but so far have not delivered on that promise!PharmaGuyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10211557578124130640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8550428.post-10140154035304063582007-06-05T16:58:00.000-04:002007-06-05T16:58:00.000-04:00Do you know if Moore saying that all aspects of he...Do you know if Moore saying that all aspects of health care (e.g., research, pharma, insurance, clinical) should be not-for-profit, or just some parts of it?<BR/><BR/>Also, I would think that guaranteeing health care to all Americans is a completely separate issue from regulation of pharma. <BR/><BR/>I'm not an expert in global health care issues, but in countries that have universal health care, what are the commonalities with respect to profit, regulation, etc.?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8550428.post-85005865516525373122007-06-05T16:51:00.000-04:002007-06-05T16:51:00.000-04:00Hey John:Contacting MichaelIf you have something y...Hey John:<BR/>Contacting Michael<BR/>If you have something you want to tell Michael directly, contact him at:<BR/>Mike@michaelmoore.com<BR/>Michael gets thousands of emails and does his best to personally answer as many of them as possible.
