Countdown to chaos: Can the Feds get their Obamacare act together in time? “We are 149 days away from the October 1 deadline for state insurance exchanges to be up and running so that citizens can purchase plans and find out how much of a subsidy they are eligible for. The IT requirements to connect everything, have all the interfaces in place, not to mention securing the system from hackers looking to steal your personal information, are incredibly complex.” And remember that the contract to build them will go to the lowest bidder – or more likely, some pol’s crony.

Obamacare might never have been applicable in the first place…
as Bill Clinton said" don't stop thinking about tomorrow it'll soon be here"

schools and roads need trillions too, or so they say
little good and just a lot of jobs for snobby yuppies
If the software, not to mention probably a million other issues, is not in final, and thorough testing TODAY, it aint gonna happen by 10/1. But they will implement anyway and then ask for trillions more to "work out a few of the bugs". Total disaster coming. Who will be surprised??
Team BO is already working overtime to come up with a strategy to shift the blame for this mess to conservatives.
they are disgusting i think-i hate the democrats -i think the plan will do little
"I think the plan will do little"
I disagree- I think it will do a lot, all of it will be destructive.
Corporate Greed shouldn't have stolen our gold in the first place. Then this wouldn't have happened.
That flow chart is one heckuva digestive system.
And we know what eventuates from a digestive system.
Indeed- but this GI tract is clearly afflicted with the bureaucratic equivalent of diverticulitis and constipation.
