With just days to go before open enrollment ends on March 31, Maryland officials are reportedly planning to abandon its glitch-ridden ObamaCare website and replace the health exchange with technology from Connecticut’s marketplace.

The Washington Post reported late Friday that the board of the Maryland exchange will vote on changing the system that has cost at least $125.5 million at a meeting on Tuesday, the day after the end of the first enrollment period under ObamaCare.

Turns out ObamaCare is a three card Monte game.

$125 million stolen from the people who will dismiss it like good little sheep. I say this was nothing but a planned redistribution of wealth scheme. Not just in Md., but all across the country. A lot of people need to be in jail. But unless we elect true conservatives, we are all doomed.

The person responsible this colossal disaster and wasting the taxpayer’s money is Martin O’Malley, the state’s Democrat government who is planning on running for president in 2016. The state’s Lt. Governor, Anthony Brown, was given the task of overseeing the rollout of the health-care infrastructure in Maryland.

Both failed miserably. And both stand a good chance of being elected by the sheeple.

Any conservative Marylander’s who are left are actively planning to leave the state. Even some liberals that I know are leaving. That’s how bad it is.

What executive recruiting agency specializes in personnel who are experts at losing $125 million? What is the typical career path of such a person? Maybe that on their first assignment they quickly wasted $1 million and moved up the ladder?

What would be the recruiting pitch? Outstanding leader with track record of losing projects wanted for new challenge?

What is the bonus plan based on what metrics?

What graduate school is best known for churning out great losers? What kind of recruiting competition do freshly minted graduates face?

Is there a professional society for managers who specialize in running projects with high loss goals? Surely it is not called Executive Losers. Is there a diversity goal here. How many come from private business, and how many from government? This is just a whole new career area that I am exploring. Fascinating!

So true. We are leaving for Florida in 2032 and not turning back.

Two reasons - Baltimore city, and the DC burbs.
