You know what's missing from this cartoon? Pinstriped suits, with a bulge inside the holster line of the jacket and titled hats with bands around them, on the snakes..
In the United States, wherever there is human suffering or human need, there is a profit to be made, and the corporations who make that profit are very proficient at purchasing politicians who will ensure that their profit remains sacrosanct. Those politicians are quite adept at manipulating public opinion, and the media machine of those politicians, Fox News, is one of the most successful propaganda outlets that has ever existed. Where else can people be manipulated into screaming against something that is ultimately in their best interest? We are the only industrialized nation where one illness could financially destroy you. Why do we allow this to happen, and why are those who have been bought by the Fox News machine shouting loudest and not being confronted?

Obama unleashed a sleeping giant, the American people, and filled them with a terrible resolve.
