ACA Comic Strips: He's Too Hip And He's Covered (HealthCare.gov)
A four-panel comic with a bearded cyclist in thick glasses, captioned 'He rides a tricycle in the road,' 'His beard catches everything,' 'Only eats food that's "experimental"...' and 'But even he's not too hip for health care.' A centre panel reads 'JOIN HIM AT HealthCare.gov'. The message invites the viewer to enrol because someone even unlikely to has.
