Impossible Complexity: New Obamacare Flowchart Reveals How Absurd our Government is

by the Left Coast Rebel

A simple question from a simple free-thinking individual. Do you simply think our government is competent enough to effectively command this:

obamacare-complexity

Yes, that’s the Obamacare-bureaucratic largess in a flow chart picture (go here for an even clearer, high-res picture).

Dan Mitchell over at Cato offers the alternative (in an alternative, common-sense reality) –

Free markets are characterized by voluntary exchange between buyers and sellers. Mapping that relationship is absurdly simply, as this image indicates.

And Dan Mitchell chalks up (as I do) Obamacare as adding massive insult to bureaucratic-entanglement largess (and further destroying our health care system):

It’s worth noting, by the way, that the system already was a disaster even before Obamacare was enacted. In the health care sector, free markets are only allowed to operate in very rare cases, such as cosmetic surgery, laser eye surgery, and (for better or worse) abortion. The rest of the sector was heavily distorted by government intervention. Obamacare simply makes a bad situation worse.
Revolting and leading to just that, too.

Via Memeorandum.

  1. I don't think there is a word that adequately describes this… It looks like the subway map for Berlin! http://www.boomspeed.com/atucker7/Map_Berlin_S_UBahnNetz.jpg
    On second thought what I thought was complicated now looks quite simple.(Subway travel in Berlin I mean)
    But isn't that the Govt way? It reminds me of a saying I heard years ago; If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bull$§@&!
    There will have to be an agency just to understand how it works! Obama, Reid and Pelosi must be so proud…

  2. >voluntary exchange between buyers and sellers

    "Voluntary" is the word that so offends Chairman BaO and his ilk.

    And, of course, a simple, straightforward, common-sense system would mean that there is no need for bureaucracy, and a lot of people would be out of positions of power.
