Michael Moore’s Sicko is getting impressive reviews across the board. If you’re not familiar with it (or been living under a rock for the last month or so), the movie takes on the health-care industry in Moore’s typical scathing documentary approach by pointing out the failures of American health insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies, and the politicians who have been paid millions to seemingly do their bidding.

Gets one to thinking what it would be like if Moore followed up with some type of expos? on the P&C insurance industry (Sicko Too?). He could go down to the Gulf Coast and talk to some of the thousands of people who thought they had full coverage (including wind and flood) only to find out after the fact that the carrier never fully explained their policy limitations. I can see it now; Moore flashes the roundabout “if-then” exclusions on screen that are so filled with legalese and circuitous language that policyholders would rather opt for a weekend stay at Abu Ghraib than attempt to decipher.
