Open letter to President Obama (Part 469)
(Emailed to White House on 5-4-13.)
President Obama c/o The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500
Dear Mr. President,
I know that you receive 20,000 letters a day and that you actually read 10 of them every day. I really do respect you for trying to get a pulse on what is going on out here.
______________
I have put up lots of cartoons from Dan Mitchell’s blog before and they have got lots of hits before. Many of them have dealt with the economy, eternal unemployment benefits, socialism, Greece, welfare state or on gun control.
The funniest cartoon is the one with “Nurse Sebelius” stuffing the huge capsule down the kid’s throat!!! Obamacare is so sad you just have to laugh about it.
An Obamacare Chart to Make You Cry…Balanced by Obamacare Cartoons to Make You Laugh
March 27, 2013 by Dan Mitchell
I’ve shared a nightmarish flowchart to show the Byzantine complexity of America’s healthcare system under Obamacare. 
Sort of makes you wonder whether the healthcare system will now be more complicated than the internal revenue code.
But some people may be skeptical because this flowchart was prepared by Republicans from the Joint Economic Committee.
Well, here’s a flowchart from the pro-Obamacare Washington Post, and it shows how just one small piece of the law will require complicated gymnastics.
It’s hard to feel anything but misery about this situation. The Obamacare taxes largely took effect earlier this year and a big chunk of the Obamacare spending starts next year.
So let’s with a great cartoon from Henry Payne showing the Secretary of Health and Human Service force-feeding Obamacare to states.
I would have replaced “states” with “patients,” but you get the point. We’re being saddled with a one-size-fits-all monstrosity that will cripple what little is left of a functioning marketplace for health care and health insurance.
Next we have a Lisa Benson cartoon, showing the very unhealthy meal we’re expected to digest. Where’s Mayor Bloomberg when we actually need him?!?
Both Benson and Payne were part of the political cartoonist contest, so you can see their best work by clicking here.
Last but not least, here’s Steven Breen’s take on the third birthday of Obamacare. As you can see, there’s not a lot to celebrate.
Indeed, this is a good opportunity to share my video explaining why Obamacare will be a budget buster.
P.S. Lawmakers did repeal one of Obamacare’s tax provisions, a 1099 reporting rule that would have buried everyone under a blizzard of paperwork (here’s the cartoon version of that issue). And the Democratic-controlled Senate recently voted 79-20 to repeal the medical devices tax. So there are small reasons for optimism. And I think the bulk of Obamacare spending could be repealed as part of a Medicaid block grant if and when Washington is controlled by lawmakers who are serious about addressing the entitlement crisis.
P.P.S. If you want to enjoy some more Obamacare humor, click here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here.
P.P.P.S. If you want to know how to restore a functioning market-based healthcare system, this video from Reason TV is must watching.
