    Invited crowd salutes ‘Sicko’ - BY MEGAN REITER, Scranton Times-Tribune
    “I think every congressman should get a copy of this tape sent to them,” said Vern Johnson, of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters, Local 645, who drove from Bradford County to see the movie.

    “I’ve seen guys saying, ‘We’re better off dead than alive for our families.’... I think that’s pretty sad in America. I don’t think anybody should have to feel that way,” Mr. Johnson said.
