Yeah - so far Obamacare pretty much sux. Which isn't really true at all, because we don't know if Obamacare sux because the means by which we're supposed to be able to access Obamacare ain't workin', so how the fuck are we supposed to make a call on this thing anyway?
But wait - in states where they took the Federal dollars to expand Medicaid and put up their own exchanges, the thing is working pretty well. In California (eg) it's doing just fine thanks very much. But in the states where they refused to do anything, they have to rely on the Federal Government's version of the exchange, and that one ain't doin' so good. Gee - I wonder if there's a correlation there? I wonder if the states having all the problems are the ones where a certain political party has control of the government.
New products that get launched before they've been adequately tested and tweaked are just always disasters. Wanna talk Windows8?
But after a coupla weeks (of oops; and uh-oh; and fuck - again!?!) isn't it time for somebody to suggest that the wingnuts are jamming and/or hacking the site just to make it all look worse than it actually is?
I'm not saying it's not fucked up - it looks pretty fucked up from where I'm sittin'. I'm just saying that if both sides are the same and both sides pull the same shit and both sides are always exactly equally to blame, then where's the leftie version of "those bad ol' conservatives sabotaged our thing"? - followed of course by the counter charge of "those libtards crashed their own system so they could blame the conservatives who are chaste and pure and blameless and would never pull anything underhanded like that. blahblahblah.
Meanwhile, nothing gets fixed and we're right back in the same ol' bucket o' shit.
