Healthcare?

Watch out - I'm rambling again...

So I don't think that watching Michael Moore's "Sicko" documentary is enough to help me make a decision on whether or not I agree with government-run healthcare but I think this guy makes some valid points...

Sadly I don't think most people (me included) give it much thought. I'm healthy, my family's healthy, what's it matter to me?

I feel like the phrase "People don't care about what they don't think about." sums up a lot of these kinds of issues for people. Are we too apathetic about this stuff, lacking a general compassion for our neighbors and fellow Americans, or just overwhelmed by "everyday" life?
