“One thing the movie does well is show how those in charge of these monopoly organizations have little concern for peoples’ welfare, and how real doctors and patients are unable to effectively fight the system. It also depicts the police, the IRS, and border agents are the enforcement arm of this crony capitalist system. Most people never see the American medical establishment exposed for what it is. Dallas Buyers Club shows the system at its very worst, a crony capitalist combination of the profit motive armed with the vast enforcement power of the federal government.”
