Stunner!

The bottom line for me is that everyone in America who isn't a Romney is one serious medical condition away from bankruptcy.  People like @avclub-9079ea527e08a24dfad44e3302d5f091:disqus learn this lesson one at a time every day, but unfortunately it never sinks in to those who aren't yet sick.
