The disaster that is Obamacare (ongoing)
- It's Dec. 3 and the Obamacare web site is still broken for many people. CNN found that users still get error screens mid-stream. Others have found try-again-later messages. Worst of all, even if you do get through enrollment, you may still not actually be enrolled with any insurer.
- Cost of that broken web site? Estimated at $1 billion and counting. (Similar-size projects done by private companies *for their own core business* cost maybe $50 million.)
- Even Obama-loving, Democrat business owners are sour on Obamacare…after having taken away their employees' coverage, on the grounds that Obamacare with its new plan mandates is just too costly for them as employers, but somehow not too costly for their employees.
- Even President Obama's former press secretary, Robert Gibbs, thinks the Obama administration needs to become more honest. (Ouch!) Sadly, Sebelius didn't get the memo.
- Things look so bad for Democrats politically that even Obama's rubber-stamp, Sen. Al Franken, may be in trouble in 2014.
- Government-run health care doesn't work in the UK either, where more than 1000 NHS patients have died of simple dehydration since 2003. (Hmm…an unofficial way they get rid of pesky, money-draining patients?)
