Fear or Not. Everyone Deserves to Live.
18Oct2005 Filed under: rhetoric Author: Marcia HansenThe TV is on in the background and Michael Moore’s, Bowling for Columbine is on. (so, yes, I’m breaking the advice in my previous post.)
I had forgotten the part where Moore contrasts living in Canada and living in the US. The difference is remarkable, especially given the conversations we’ve been having in my Rhetoric of Emotion class.
According to the film, Canadians
- have different types of news programs. There are not so many stories about people getting killed.
I need to look up the stats and see what the differences are in violent crime statistics.
- many in Toronto don’t lock their doors.
Says their concept of fear is different than ours in the US.
- have universal healthcare.
One of the teenagers being interviewed says, we’ll sure, everyone should have healthcare. It’s just a basic human right. Everyone deserves to live.

We would also like to express that most of those who find themselves with out health insurance usually are students, self-employed and those that are not working. More than half of the uninsured are really under the age of 35. They do not come to feel they are requiring health insurance because they’re young in addition to healthy. Its income is often spent on property, food, plus entertainment. Some people that do represent the working class either whole or not professional are not given insurance by way of their jobs so they proceed without owing to the rising tariff of health insurance in the country. Thanks for the thoughts you write about through this blog.
