    What a mess, duplicate enrollments, missing data and more. Obama Care is on the second spin of a five spiral crash. I think before the first of the year the Obama administration, chock full of excuses, will push back the beginning of Obama Care to Jan 2015 AFTER the 2014 mid-term in an attempt to save as many seats in Congress as they can. The problem is they've already set things in motion that I doubt can be stopped.

    It's little wonder one of the authors of Obama Care Democrat Max Baucus said it was going to be a "train wreck". You'll know when the Liberals admit to themselves (no one else) it's a mess, they will stop referring to it as Obama Care and calling it the ACA consistently.

    People made MISTAKES in their applications! OR did several applications!

    SUCH THINGS HAVE NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE in the HISTORY of MANKIND!! :roflol:

    This certainly means the END of the PROGRAM!

    The Right is getting absolutely pathetic in their reaching for "disaster". :roll:

    Like it or not it's crashing. Go read the story, it's wide spread. Also the missing data fields should never happen in the first place as they should have been coded as required fields and not allow the customer to move on till filled in, even Amazon does that. It's not rocket science to design a website.

    I didn't see in the article that the enrollees made mistakes, it appears it was the system itself that created the mistakes due to horrendous flaws in the programming...

    I would try to just barter, but it doesn't work as well in any Institution of money based markets.

    Once liberals start blaming it seems to never stop. Knee jerk reaction but it is good they are blaming the people for the Obamacare failure.

    It's the 10% tax on indoor tanning that will do it. Thousands of the homeless and uninsured will arm themselves and march on Washington, the sun glinting off their pale skins a mute testimony to the suffering and life threatening lack of a good tan Obamacare is visiting on them.

    And the teeming millions making over $200,000 will surely not tolerate a tax of a whole 3.8PERCENT

    To the ramparts, my brothers, this tyranny cannot stand.

    I think Obama will delay the start till Jan 2015 AFTER the 2014 mid-term to mitigate the damage. Unfortunately for them, that will dump the mess in Hillary's lap for 2016. They lose either way if they don't repeal.

    Gal at work tried to sign up with her husband, who's self employed. Somehow, she ended up being listed as his dependent child instead of his wife and nobody seems able to correct it. They're telling her she will have to start all over... for the 4th time.

    Little wonder they're at 5% of plan.

    Health INSURANCE. That doesnt mean its "Care". Look at the wait times to be seen in many of the other countries with universal health INSURANCE like Canada or the UK. They dont get "care" before they die a lot of the times.

    How about the tax to those that a $1 over the baseline of getting subsidies and cant afford the premiums because Obamacare caused an increase of 100% and gets taxed at $95 for not having something they couldnt afford or want? Will they be mad? What great circular logic as well that those that dont pay the fine voluntarily will have the money they get back from income taxes, which is usually more than they paid in. So the IRS is going to give people more back in taxes than they paid in and then subtract $95 of that redistrobution. Genius.

    I believe that's where the Obama Care will really shine with cost savings.

    Just so. This isn't 'Garbage in, garbage out'. This is something only Big Fed could come up with. It's 'Good data in, garbage out'. Sweet stuff indeed.

    Must be painful for these two, watching their dreams crash & burn. He'd look a tad more in control if he fired her. Not much, but a tad. ;)

    Even with hundreds of millions of dollars at their disposal, Obama and Sebellius couldn't even manage the launch of a simple website. That's how clueless and incompetent the political class is.

    You assume President Obama will step down.

    :)

    And by now the liberals know their intellectually abused minions will defend even the most egregious acts from their Santa Claus government. There is nothing the drones wont find a way to justify. I mean just read some of the responses from PF's regular liberals. We have a President who LITERALLY violates The Constitution and strips Americans of their freedoms. That's not sophistry or conjecture, its hard cold documented fact. But do the minions care? Nope because they're cheering for the lie they've been force fed that America can be a socialist paradise where nobody works and everybody gets a Ferrari.

    When it comes to Big Fed, is this as good as it gets? Seems like it, eh?
