Simple: it's not your problem.
When I needed heart surgery, it was my problem because I needed it, my doctor's problem because he diagnosed & arranged treatment for it, and my insurance company's problem because they agreed to pick up the tab on the bet they wouldn't have to. Mr. Snowe, it wasn't your problem, and it wasn't the government's problem - and it still isn't, so stay out of my medical life.
I love how he thinks government can fix the problem.
He’s part of the problem, and can’t see it.
He’s *cough* snowed.
