"... Filmmaker Michael Moore's production company took ailing Ground Zero responders to Cuba in a stunt aimed at showing that the U.S. health-care system is inferior to Fidel Castro's socialized medicine, according to several sources with knowledge of the trip.
The trip was to be filmed as part of the controversial director's latest documentary, "Sicko," an attack on American drug companies and HMOs that Moore hopes to debut at the Cannes Film Festival next month.
the sick sojourn, which some say uses ill 9/11 workers as pawns, has angered many in the responder community.

When was the last time you saw someone craft their own pontoon and shove off from Jersey?
