Another way to frame it is how well people can bounce back from a medical emergency. The poorer you are, the harder it is to come back to even where you were before the incident.
Medical bills get out of hand but blue collar workers often find themselves out of work, fired because they couldn't make it to work through no fault of their own.
Our society punishes people for being poor and it's disgusting that it's so hard to even get people to acknowledge this, much less try to fix it.
