Who’s the SICKO now, Mr. Moore?
It appears Michael Moore may have violated the US trade embargo against Cuba in the making of his forthcoming documentary, SICKO. In the film, Moore takes a handful of 9-11 rescue workers to Cuba in an attempt to prove the island nation has a better, more effective health care system than the United States.
That’s typical Moore liberalism and ridiculousness, but who cares, right? People long ago have either drank the Michael Moore Kool-Aid or he hasn’t. Trouble is, in doing so, Moore apparently did not comply with US law. Although he filed some of the necessary paperwork, online reports suggest more may have filed paperwork with incomplete information. Whether that’s valid or not, what appears to be valid is that Moore did not wait for government approval of his trip under his phoney-baloney “full time journalist” exception clause.
Of course, Moore’s no more of a full-time journalism than any blogger.
While Moore didn’t necessarily buy a set of Studio RTA furniture while he was down there, his journey may cost him a hefty fine; I suggest the fine equal the amount of Moore’s personal and business earnings from whatever SICKO rakes in at the box office. After all, Moore is rich… does he believe he needs to pay the government HIS fair share or not?
Liberalism ain’t so fun when it’s pointed at YOU, is it Michael?
