[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 244160, member: 1"] I certainly would never challenge the pain and suffering that Julie Pierce describes in the open letter to John Stossel on Michael Moore's website. Her story is heartbreaking. Unfortunately there are similar tragic stories on the internet written by people that feel that they have been damaged by the inadequacies of universal health care systems in other countries. From what I can see none of these systems work, including our current one. Although we could also go back and forth posting heart wrenching testimonials or attacks on the credibilty of our sources I think it doesn't really help us to understand health care reform. It would be easy to dig up all kinds of opposing views about the ethics of John Stossel and Michael Moore but then all we'd really learn about are John Stossel and Michael Moore, not health care reform. In my opinion this kind of ad hominem attack doesn't really accomplish anything because it is simply an attack on the people who present different sides of an issue and has nothing to do with the issue itself. How about if we stay on topic and just discuss health care reform? You're right... [/QUOTE]
