I sometimes wonder (with a deep, cold shudder) if someone somewhere could take this poster at face value. Someone so far removed from my own edifice of knowledge, experience and opinions, that this can be read as anything other than ironic satire.
For example, some home-schooled children in Idaho or Arkansas, by parents made crazy by limbaugh and murdoch, then breitbart and infowars.
The kind of people so clueless that they could bite off the hand that feeds them, voting republican while crying out "keep your dirty government hands off my Medicare", thinking that Medicare is a private enterprise... thingy... that's like... their birthright... and it's made by... angels, reading The Holy Bible or something... and that's... a sustainable business model for all involved?
Yes, yes there are. I have met them.
