Oh, we just love the 'very rich' British elite: In a "let them eat cake" moment: ContactMusic.com says SIR ELTON JOHN's partner DAVID FURNISH has offered his dismay with filmmaker MICHAEL MOORE for criticising the U.S. healthcare system. The star - who lives in England - insists the upcoming movie "Sicko" is inaccurate, saying America is "the only place to get good treatment". Elton & David
He added, "I completely disagree with Michael Moore. "With my own father, when he was ill, the only option was to hire a jet and fly him to America. It was the only place to get good treatment."
Hmmm...he hired a "private jet"...did he? Doesn't that seem a little out of touch with the average American citizen? Moore's film "Sicko" (which Furnish probably didn't bother to even see) examines the disastrous consequences of the profit-driven U.S. healthcare system; which basically mean...if you can hire a "private jet" you'll get the best service...on the other hand, the rest of us poor slobs, well, I guess we can just hope we don't get sick.
