I wasn’t attacking him. I’m just a curious person. I am always misunderstood. I usually don’t care, but I like you.
There’s no reason facebook mongrel zuckerberg would waste facebook resources to support the ACA.
The main website doesn’t need much power to host it, they have all the power they need. It directs you to exchanges which are hosted elsewhere. The problem is from what I gather is that the website was rushed, terribly designed, and suffering from tons of bugs due to poor design and lazy government IT staff.
Ok.There’s no reason facebook mongrel zuckerberg would waste facebook resources to support the ACA
I can think of two, right up-front:
1) Ideological synergy. Zuckerberg is far-left.
2) Immense profit potential. As corporatism replaces free-market capitalism, there will be government-chosen winners and losers. Zuckerberg means to be on the Winner list. Furthermore, Facebook and Zuckerman have already shown a great level of compliance to NSA requests... almost an EAGERNESS, there....
Obama cares about the type of citizens who are the backbone of the democrat party: groups that props up white liberal elites... and that would be poor black people, angry single women without husbands, and union leader types who feel entitled... to everything while spending union dues to curry favor.
“Obama aims to resuscitate Obamacare with Rose Garden rally”
Yeah, that’ll really turn it around for me, JugEars.
Okay, but I just don’t see him sitting there calling his IT guys and saying “Write up some code for the ACA, do this, do that, debug their website, host some traffic on our servers”. He isn’t contracting to the government as far as I know, and they wouldn’t, and probably don’t want his help. I’ve never heard of anything Zuckerberg has personally done for the left. As for eagerness to help the NSA, I am not sure there is proof of that. Who knows what he has been threatened with.
As far as profit potential, he has already made millions, and could make more by requiring a monthly or one - time payment for a facebook account, or charge for more privacy, or any other number of special options. Plus all the advertising money he gets every time facebook gets a hit.
All in all, it’s possible I suppose but not likely at all.
