This is like the conservative mantra "... now that it's affecting me personally."
i had a similar thought and i suspect it lays bare the social inclinations of the people of .world.
Not really, no "conservative mantra" intended. Quite the opposite.. I was just charged thousands of dollars recently to fix my tooth even though I had insurance, not long after being charged other thousands for an unfortunate accident where I broke my leg.
The American healthcare system has no problem bankrupting you or me.
