I enjoy Kristof, but in this writing I think he belies himself

BEGINNING:
If you found a suspicious lump in your neck, you’d never put off dealing with it with the excuse: This is the loveliest neck in the world, and I don’t want to tinker with it.

END:
At that time, we’ll probably get daily M.R.I.’s and CAT scans, even as we starve naked in caves.

slip slop. the suspicious lump will not get a test from someone without insurance. and ya know what? if the only reason 'some' people want universal coverage is to rope in more people so their rates are lower... deal with it. we ain't buying that line. pay what they charge you. we already will deal with that lump, without an mri or any other test. some people don't live in fear to the tune of giving some company 20 grand a year for nothing except that maybe 'you' will get sick. fak them and fak it all.

something they keep not saying is... most people don't die young.
