Cartoonists, commenters and bloggers from all over the world are using the Internet’s images, photo sharing websites and other platforms to share funny memes to explain, poke fun, laugh at or to simply show displeasure at the latest shutdown of the American government. The Republicans and the Democrats could not come to an agreement about the Affordable Care Act (ACA) or more commonly known as the Obamacare Act, launched by Barack Obama.

This last one is finally a direct hit at the current generation of American citizens who are being hugely exploited by the capitalist backed leaders of the country, and it spells out important questions, in a satirical way, not only at the government, but urges the citizens to look deep within themselves.
