Quote of the day

From the New York Times on an employed, white, older, well-insured man whose wife contracted breast cancer and had $63,000 of her treatments refused by his insurer:

“We’ve got to do something about those people who can’t get insurance,” he said. “There has to be a safety net there. But I don’t want that safety net to catch too many people.”

Just so long as it catches you and your family, Mr. Collier?
