You really should read the article without prejudice. It even touches on how the cancer diagnosis might be tied to a lack of preventative medicine and care, both of which are caused by a lack of health insurance.

Also, framing the lack of healthcare as a burden on business is a really smart way to argue for universal healthcare, which seems to be what the article is arguing for if you read between the lines.

The truth is that a lot of people don’t care about others’ problems until those problems affect them. It isn’t right, but that’s humanity for you.
