The Third Rail

Gibson just used the term “the third rail” to describe health care. Many times, that term is reserved for social security. Like a third rail on a train track, if a politician touches social security, he’s going to get zapped. A third rail is an issue that nobody wants to deal with because messing with it often makes Americans nervous and angry.
