I’m no computer expert, but there’s not enough bandwidth to handle anything close to routine traffic.

The worst case scenario of O-Care is exactly what Obama would like to see happening.

Mission accomplished — another nail in the US coffin.

You gotta be an industrial strength optimist-—March 31 is half a year away!!. If it lasts anywhere near that long I’ll bring a bottle over and we’ll share it while it eats itself the rest of the way. I don’t see needing more than one bottle when this hermaphrodite starts eating its own skin-—it just won’t take long.

That’s just the medical side. And very soon, when medical care becomes a rationed government service, an (R) party affiliation will constitute screening criteria to deny care.

One party rule is here.

Did you accidentally comment on the wrong thread? No indication that insufficient bandwidth has anything to do with the website failures. However, they'd love for that to be the case since it would be so easy to fix.

Why should he ask? He didn’t ask for the employer mandate delay. His Imperial Majesty King Stompyfoot the Bamster will simply issue a decree.

Boycott the lamestream media. Cancel your Comcast/NBC cable subscription. And avoid businesses that employ ‘ill eagles’.

Even if the web site gets fixed, enrollment will be dismal especially among the younger generation. Given low enrollment due to the high cost and questionable access to the promised subsidies coupled with the likely repeal of some of the new taxes funding Obamacare, the system will go broke in a year and even more people will be without health insurance. The Democrats fix will be to pass a single payer socialized medicine plan of course exempting Congress and government officials who will enjoy a Cadillac plan unavailable to the peons.

“Make no mistake, the congressional “fix” will be single payer.

This was all planned”.

Yup! Here are some excerpts from the blueprint they are working from:
“In the USSR a developed socialist society has been built. At this stage, when socialism is developing on its own foundations, the creative forces of the new system and the advantages of the socialist way of life are becoming increasingly evident, and the working people are more and more widely enjoying the fruits of their great revolutionary gains”.
“Developed socialist society is a natural, logical stage on the road to communism”. -1977 Soviet Constitution

Divorced parents will be sunk first. Existing child support orders are 25 to 50 % of net income (if they are behaving) The extra load will put them under n droves.

You mean the fathers will be soaked because they have to provide the medical for the youngsters. Mama can get by with an individual policy.

Look like the Dutch system. Four players that cornered around 80% of the market. Stifled competition and prices are around the same regardless of the company.

There is no downside - it is all sweetness, good intentions and “healthcare for all.” Problems will be minimized or not mentioned at all. Instead, the media will talk about nasty Ted Cruz, or twerking.

You forgot the most loyal democrats - inner city blacks who can barely read - they'll blame whites in general and President Bush in particular... and the MSM will quote them ... endlessly.

Democrats are scrambling for excuses: there wasn’t enough money or time. The decision to delay controversial regulations til after the 2012 election slowed the process.

The boys at the New York Times would believe sh*t was lumps of gold if it fell from the mouth of an elite democrat. Obama's incompetents are in luck - they don't have to work too hard to find excuses. Even now average dems are blaming President Bush for ObamaCare's problems..

The last paragraph is exactly what they wanted. Single payer is coming.

And one more thing. Failure of obamacare will not hurt the democrat party. Their voters are in the bag. They’ll never vote for anyone else no matter what happens. Because whatever happens in never the democrats’ fault. I’ve seen liberal voters make excuses for obama and the democrats when you show them a fact. Of course, these same people claim to be moderate. In fact, they think obama is a moderate. They told me so.

Obamacare is a profit machine for the insurance companies. They’ll be collecting government force premiums but not have to pay out anything because of the high deductibles.
