Dear Dr Mattox,

Of the 30 -40 million US uninsured how many are the fast driving drug addicts, or lazy, obese cigarrette smokers whom you abhore and how many of them are ordinary folks, the people who are apparently easy for you to dismiss , the  working poor, in jobs that need filling but just don´t get paid very well , certainly not enough to part with 1,200 a month...  maybe the receptionist or the cleaner or the guy in the parking garage, people who just do NOT appear on your radar because they do NOT read a novel a week, do NOT know the right people, do NOT belong to the right organizations, did NOT go to the best schools. Never mind Dr. Crippens friend but what about the disabled, the folks in the other car, the unemployed, the unemployable, good cannon fodder but No FREE LUNCH. Never mind that the free lunches are served up in corporate board rooms every where, provided by the moms and pops investing in the great enterprises that won't provide health insurance.
