A list of things Obamacare leads to

A list of things Obamacare leads to…

By  futile democracy

A few months ago I wrote on the absurdities that conservatives tend to invoke when they’re losing an argument that they’ve staked their reputations on. Back then, it was gay marriage. The list of terrible, World ending catastrophes that same-sex marriage was going to inevitably lead to, according to conservatives, was extensive and staggering. But now they’ve moved on to a new subject. And so I thought I’d present a comprehensive list of the most outlandish and absurd suggestions that US conservatives have decided are the product of the implementation of the Affordable Care Act:

A Communist takeover of government and the end of the Catholic Church in the US. Here.

Following the path of Hitler (you know, the guy who killed 6,000,000 Jewish people in gas chambers, and tried to establish a “racially pure” empire) and Stalin. here.

Worse than Watergate. Here.

Worse thing since slavery. Here.

Armageddon. Here.

President Obama killing a variety of old people. Here.

Kids having secret abortions at school ‘sex clinic’. Here.

The most dangerous piece of legislation EVER passed. Here.

President Obama starting a race war. Here.

The death of all prosperity. Here.

The destruction of the institution of marriage. Here.

The work of Satan seeking to destroy freedom. Here.

Obamacare causes cancer. Here.

The reintroduction of Feudalism. Here

The Government murdering people based on how productive they are, and children with Down Syndrome being judged by a panel on whether he or she can live or die. Here.

Conservatives sent to concentration camps. Here.

The US becoming a leading outpost of an Islamic Caliphate. Here.

Health insurance companies going along with the Affordable Care Act, are no different to Jews boarding the trains to concentration camps. Here.

Systematic genocide. Here.

As destructive to personal liberty as runaway slaves being forced to go back to their masters. here.

A racist tax against white people. Here.

Worse than the Boston bombing. Here.

A gay man going to prison because he has no money, and is forced to play roulette, because of Obamacare. Here.

Schools preparing children to accept Death Panels. Here. Naturally none of them mention the exact part of the bill that lead to their outlandish claim.
When I began this, I didn’t expect the list to be as long as it eventually turned out to be. We are apparently a generation that is gifted with access to information and fact on a level no previous generation has enjoyed. And yet, it seems that facts and reasoned debate are often drowned out by a deafening constant screech of absurdity that creates an atmosphere in which Michelle Bachmann and Ted Cruz are trusted with political power. They represent nothing more than a comprehensive failure of education and access to accurate information in order to form rational and well rounded democratic decisions. What a waste of a wonderful gift.
