More Obamacare fuckups

[Latrinsorm]

To facilitate my fellow D-Teamer of a different stream streamer, here is the best mirror for the Obamacare site.

WB should stream himself navigating the Obamacare site to show us how quick and easy it is

This will not happen until WB can figure out what is a cost-effective ISP.

Despite WB insisting everyone is just making this shit up I still can't fully access the healthcare exchange website. In fact it's worse now than it was a couple of days ago.

This would be funny if it weren't so sad.

Come on Man, give them a break. They only spent 93 million on The sign up page system. And 500+ million on the entire system they have in place.

I mean, it's not like a Kid in his basement could have done better. What do you think this is, Facebook?

What states are you two in? Colorado's system worked well and like I said before I was able to call and talk to a live cust. service rep w/in 3 minutes of placing the phone call.

If your state uses the federal exchange, you can now preview plans available in your state without first creating an account.

Having to create an account to see available plans was a big criticism of the old website. Despite this improvement, it still looks like a website form the 1800s -- a time when website were notoriously difficulty to use.

I'd hope the fancy education taught you the difference between ISPs and cellphone companies.

Premiums and deductibles may not be the only surprises awaiting Americans shopping for health insurance on the Obamacare exchanges.

Some folks looking for coverage may find themselves restricted to more limited doctor and hospital networks than their peers outside the state-based exchanges enjoy.

Super-high deductibles & minimal choice in doctors = win-win all around for ObamaDontCare ?

Well, clearly all the problems the system has is just a figment of everyone's racist imagination. If Colorado's system works.. everything must be working perfectly. Oh wait, this miracle must have just happened in the last 2 days:

T. PAUL, Minn. — After more than a week in action, is a key feature of President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul a success or a bust? Judging by the dearth of data, it’s virtually impossible to say.
The federal government has released no comprehensive data on how many people have enrolled for health insurance using federally run exchanges, the online marketplaces being used in 36 states for residents to compare and buy insurance. In the 14 states running their own exchanges, the situation isn’t much better.

Officials with California’s exchange say it will be mid-November until they can say how many people signed up. In Oregon and Colorado, the official number of completed applications is zero. And in Minnesota, which billed itself as a leader in implementing the Affordable Care Act, officials won’t release data until next week about the number of applications started and completed.

Oregon, another state that embraced the law, hasn’t even opened enrollment because its software can’t determine eligibility for Medicaid or for tax credits that help pay for insurance. Vermont’s system is so buggy that officials are issuing paper applications, even though the thinly populated state received $171 million — among the largest amounts in federal grants — to run its exchange and upgrade technology.

Too funny. Maybe my state is having the same problem as Oregon and that's why someone making 5000 dollars a year isn't eligible for Medicaid. Maybe the mandate should be put off for another year. If it's good enough for businesses, right?
