Watch your language: please stop saying “covered”

My letter to Michael Moore:

I just saw you on “Now” and you make an impassioned case for eliminating the health care insurance industry, the largest extractive industry in this country, and yet you keep talking about getting everyone “covered”. Why don’t you talk about getting everyone “care” or “treatment” or “cured”? If we eliminate the insurance industry, we eliminate “coverage” and can just focus on care!
Keep up the good work!

Let’s see what happens…
