Where the real infrastructure failings are

While holding great reverence for those who were killed or injured in the Minneapolis bridge collapse, let's not forget the many thousands who die each year because of the lack of preventative health care. Last year, during my annual physical, my doctor noticed a mole that looked suspicious. It turned out to be malignant melanoma. I had the malignancy removed and now have follow-up inspections twice yearly. Without a good health plan, it's doubtful that any of that could have happened in time.

KAH -- I'm thankful that your doctor was so observant. And yes, I do agree with your larger point, too.
