You get a different operating system everytime your computer crashes? So you accept no errors whatsoever? Ever...?

[this is a technical error and saying that AHCA is a failure because of it is absurd]

No but you can if you choose to. If you don't get signed up you get fined by our wonderful governemnt. The ACA has been failure from the time none of these bozo's ever even read the bill. We've been telling you swooners that for going on three years. Now your crying about blue screen of death for some reason. Take it up with microsoft tech support if you can't figure it out on your own.

The Washington Post had a great article today on the fact that the Obama administration knew the website was a complete failure but launched it anyway.

Obama caused a government shutdown to avoid a delay to launch a failed product.
Most of 0bama's voters are too damned dumb to know the difference. Look around at the people defending the thing!

pretty funny. 0bama and the website are two peas in a pod: both massive failures.

The ACA website failed because a basic software development project was horribly mismanaged by overpaid government bureaucrats. ACA as a hole fails because those that demanded it can't handle middle school math.

It looks like most people are browsing from school.

Probably website builder classes teaching people what not to do.

As for who is subsidizing older people - no one. Their monthly premium for a 50 year old could be between $600 to over $1,000 depending on the plan they sign up for under Obamacare. They are also a larger population than the younger people who will be paying higher premiums. As for senior citizens, they have been paying for Medicare since they enrolled for SS. Many seniors have a supplemental policy or a prescription policy that they pay for because Medicare is pretty basic.

Insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies, children who remain on their parents insurance until the age of 26, a family who could never afford insurance and buy the cheapest plan under Obamacare, are the beneficiaries of Obamacare.
Uh, huh. Like this call center:

Try to keep up.

The site wasn't ready when they performed a soft test a few days before with only a few hundred log ins.

When you have the leftie jon stewart turn on it, there really is a problem.

osama did not want to delay the start, so he put millions of Americans through hell for three weeks just to spite the GOP.

Brilliant!

After certain people get what money they can out of this failure( like what happened with the Green Energy Programs and the bank bailouts and the auto industry bailouts), they'll declare it as unworkable and pull the plug. We'll all be poorer but none the wiser, as usual.

Wow, you are really desperate to spin a colossal failure into gold yarn.

Laughing at the superior intellect...

The one test they did right before "blast off" was only 2,000 people ...... and it CRASHED.
The excuses were " it's too popular, too many people just LOVE ObamaCare", but we know now that was a LIE. Traffic dropped by 88% within days and it's still down.

The entire Core of this program that only cost $400 Million to set up at the very last minute is corrupted. It's a joke all over the country - even the Left Wing Media is not buying the excuses any more.
