While comparing the "average amount charged per patient" is sort of absurd, the point is taken. And it wouldn't happen here, either, had government not wrecked the free markets for health care.

Al,

Has the memo already gone out? I've been looking forward to the moment when all of the Obamunists who've been arguing that Obamacare is working turn and start ragging on it mercilessly for being a totally crap system that can only be fixed with single payer. I thought this would have to wait until after the 2016 elections, which appear on track to be held as a referendum on the Confederate flag. But has the green light already been signaled? Did Jon Stewart do a bit mocking the ACA?

Is it okay to hate Obamacare now?
