      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        The graph would indicate that the horror years are between 1990 and 2015 rather than just those of Obamacare, although admittedly since the graph doesn't go back before 1990, where it is actually at its steepest, it's a little hard to draw a conclusion of exactly when the rot set in.

        I was only joking

          Also the denominator is much lower in administrative costs than for provider costs. This makes the graph misleading.

          Like when you see cumulative percentage growth of religions and Christianity and Islam are relatively flat while wiccanism increased 100x.

          Only non-witches get due process.
