The cartoon and joke (crass or not) is about an entirely separate issue than the economic crisis the world is going through.  To call someone indifferent about an issue for having a cheap laugh having to do with something unrelated is daft.  We are not telling jokes at a funeral here.

Single Payer, by your own ideology you shouldn’t be laughing, smiling or enjoying anything until this crisis is over.

I bet this hit too close to home for a certain artist in New York City.

Ed - You’re creepy.
