Recalling Reagan's Ignorance

When I read this I couldn't help but be reminded of Reagan's people-are-homeless-by-choice comment.
Policy pundits are unhappy with the state of health insurance. What is the problem? After considering some alternative theories, I believe that the best explanation is simply that most people do not want health insurance.
Only someone with health insurance would ever think that. Only someone who doesn't know anyone without health insurance would ever think that. Only someone who doesn't understand the emotional and financial consequences of not having health insurance would ever write that. It means he has no clue about the frightening financial consequences of getting sick or getting in a car accident or needing an emergency operation. How nice for him.

What a maroon.
