Because it wasn't tested.
These aren’t “glitches” and “problems” - it is an absolute, systemic failure.
'We did not anticipate the scale of problems' ...
“...we take responsibility for them.”
Translation:
“We take ‘responsibility’ for this about like we took responsibility for Benghazi. In other words, we will flap our gums a little, and that’ll be the end of it.”
Gosh its so popular!!
UNEXPECTED!

Community organizers writing code, playing doctor and redistributing wealth. What could possibly go wrong?
Taking responsibility to a libtard means ONLY going through the painful agony of saying “I take responsibility”
Nothing else
They don’t actually have to do anything, they just have to say the words
I’m still looking for the ending to his sentence:
“We did not anticipate the scale of problems WE INHERITED”
These people always blame someone else for all their screw-ups.
LIAR!
The site failed tests with only a few hundred users.
When free people develop systems, they tend to do so over time, working out the problems as they go. Most systems are not born fully developed.
And when businesses develop systems, they do so knowing that if they get it wrong, they’ll lose customers. They know that their customers do not have to do business with them, so they design their systems purposely to make it attractive to do business with them. The ones who get it wrong soon go out of business.
The government, on the other hand, doesn’t have to get it right, or make it attractive. They just pass a law requiring that you use their system like it or not. If it works, or doesn’t work, the law is the law.
If you hire someone to build a house for you, you’re gonna check on its progress at least a few times before completion - after all, you’ve got thousands of dollars invested.
Now consider ObamaCare - the Admin has MILLIONS of dollars invested, really big money, and we’re expected to believe there were NO check-ups or progress reports at all?
Either this Admin is completely and totally clueless when it comes to any sort of policy execution - a distinct possibility - or they’re lying, they knew all along this project would be problem-plagued and ignored it.
I’m guessing the latter, although “all of the above” is definitely applicable with this bunch’o’bozos.
And if you think things are bad now...remember, you're only just getting started.
Hey Obama, you built that!
Hayek Was Right: The Worst Do Get to the Top
FEBRUARY 01, 1998 by LAWRENCE W. REED
In spite of freedom’s remarkable, global progress in recent years—from the collapse of the Soviet empire to the growth of “privatization”—there is no sign yet of a shortage of statists with silly and destructive schemes. The best explanation of why and how such people get into positions of power is still found in “Why the Worst Get on Top,” which is chapter ten of F. A. Hayek’s masterpiece, The Road to Serfdom.
When Hayek wrote his best-known book in 1944, the world was captivated by the notion of socialist central planning. While almost everyone in Europe and America decried the brutality of nazism, fascism, and communism, public opinion was being shaped and molded by an intelligentsia which held that these “excesses” of socialism were avoidable exceptions. If only we make sure the right people are in charge, said the statist intellectuals, the iron fist will dissolve into a velvet glove.
Those who, in Hayek’s words, “think that it is not the system which we need fear, but the danger that it might be run by bad men,” are naïve utopians who will forever be disappointed by the socialist outcome. Indeed, this is the history of twentieth-century statism—the endless search for a place where the dream might actually be made to work, settling on a spot until disaster is embarrassingly apparent to all, then blaming persons rather than the system and flitting off to the next inevitable disappointment. Perhaps someday, the dictionary definition of “statist” may read, “Someone who learns nothing from human nature, economics, or experience, and repeats the same mistakes over and over again without a care for the rights and lives of people he crushes with his good intentions.”
Even the worst features of the statist reality, Hayek showed, “are not accidental byproducts” but phenomena that are part and parcel of statism itself. He argued with great insightfulness that “the unscrupulous and uninhibited are likely to be more successful” in any society in which government is seen as the answer to most problems. They are precisely the kind of people who elevate power over persuasion, force over cooperation. Government, possessing by definition a legal and political monopoly of the use of force, attracts them just as surely as dung draws flies. Ultimately, it is the apparatus of government that allows them to wreak their havoc on the rest of us.
Hardly a day goes by that, a half-century after Hayek wrote, the newspapers fail to provide new examples of the worst getting to the top.

If you like FUBO-Ware 1.0, you’ll love FUBO-Care .1
Isn't that what Napoleon said after Waterloo?

But Obama tells me that this same thing happens to Apple.
Because you and your boss are MORONS!!!!
Funny how they jumped all over Bush for not anticipating the problems in Iraq but they use the same excuse for their own issues.
