Sicko is the name of the new Michael Moore film exposing the US health service for what it is – a profit hungry machine that puts money first and people second. In the good ol’ US of A, if you don’t pay when you get sick then it’s tough luck. Beacon Medical Group is our very own Irish version of Sicko. They are the spearhead of Mary Harney’s new ‘co-location’ plan for the hospital service in Ireland and in January they submitted a proposal to build a large ‘private’ hospital on the grounds of Cork’s University Hospital (CUH) in Wilton. |

Cork University Hospital 2010?
Who said the P.D's were finished. There's no need for them when the F.F-Green coalition is implementing their neo-liberal crackpot economics. They are subsidizing private profit and giving public land to avaricious predators. Public resources are being used to create an apartheid, 2-tier system. Some are more equal than others. S. F. and Labour need to get out of the Dail and join the picket line.
