Repo-Men

Wow, this trailer looks great for Jude Law's new movie Repo Men!

Whats great about Sci-fi is that it can make such a powerful commentary on today's issues, in this case the cost of health care.  When life, death, and technology collide, why does life seem to get the short end of the stick?  Either its because people fear the technology, or its too expensive.  In the movie's case it seems like its too expensive.  Capitalism becomes a tough-sell when people's lives are at stake and others are trying to make a buck.  Not that I'm not sympathetic to health care, I'm actually quite sympathetic.  But at what point does the health care industry's treating people as a means to an end, become unworkable?  I don't pretend to have any answers here, I just wanted to share a really cool movie trailer.
