The Diagram Of Death
The Republican members of the Joint Economic Committee of the U.S. Congress have done the grunt work and produced a chart that illustrates what Obamacare will look like. Here’s an image I captured from their PDF file [please click on it enlarge it to the full size I was able to capture]:
Now for the really depressing news: according to Senior House Republican Member of the Committee, Kevin Brady [emphasis mine]:
Brady admits committee analysts could not fit the entire health care bill on one chart. “This portrays only about one-third of the complexity of the final bill. It’s actually worse than this.”
Over at Washington Rebel, Walking Horse is spot-on in his comments. A highlight:
The rats nest above just represents the plumbing. It does not capture the never-ending froth of dynamically changing regulations, interpretations, imaginings. Much of the practical effects will be contingent on whether the last rubber chicken lunch at a Nutroots convention gave a particular bureaucrat indigestion. Nobody can believe this is a recipe for anything but tyrannical chaos.
It is Fascism, pure and simple. And it is a diagram for the death of many of us who are being forced into the mouth of this monster.
Walking Horse believes it is designed to fail and I agree. Please take the time to click here for his explanation why and also to read of another bit of Fascism that’s in the Dodd/Frank ‘Financial Reform’ law.

George Orwell once said:
This age makes me so sick that sometimes I am almost impelled to stop at a corner and start calling down curses from Heaven.
This is one of those ‘sometimes’ for me.
Wow, this chart is giving me a headache and making me sick already.
It really is designed to fail. We are in big trouble with this, Bob, and I hope they repeal it when dems are booted out this November.
Bunni: Me too. They have to repeal ALL OF IT if our health system is not be doomed.
