Obamacare is imploding. But thanks to the government shutdown, everyone is talking about the implosion of the GOP instead.
The shutdown drama has distracted from the fact that Obamacare’s debut is worse than many realize — and it threatens the fundamental viability of the law itself. The administration claims the Obamacare online exchanges crashed because the Web site got more than 8 million hits in the first week. Please. You know how many people visit Amazon.com every week? More than 70 million. The difference is: 1.) Amazon seldom crashes, and 2.) on Amazon, people actually buy something.

Good question.
Except anyone with a clue knew the answer from the git-go.
Relax, Marc. The shutdown will end soon enough. And the ObamaCare implosion will still be there, bigger and better than ever.
They don’t intend to manage a simple web site. They intend to force us into a single payer system.
The difference is: 1.) Amazon seldom crashes, and 2.) on Amazon, people actually buy something.
Especially 2.
More importantly....without being made to buy something.

...I thought “the memo” says to always pretend that Obamacare is for our own good and will benefit all of us! Instead, it’s more important the GOP “implodes” then this wonderful ACA work. Unreal.
how on earth is it going to manage the health care of millions of Americans?
Good question.
Yeah, it takes that long to write the program, but it also takes the same amount of time to test all the bugs out.
The Obamarxists think they are so smart.
He's a bogus idiot and THEY are near-criminal bounders... any HS debating team could reduce ‘O’ to a puddle on the ground in seconds and could tear the ACA to tatters, in a flash!!!
“They intend to force us into a single payer system.”
Which is true, and which will function worse than 0bamacare.
The same way they were penalizing refiners for not mixing biofuels when there wasn't enough made to use.
Oh yes. Here’s the hitcounter from Drudge:

I figured out a way to “freep” the WaPo. Go to the comments and “like” mine. The top comment only has 11 “likes,” so it’ll be easy to put this one on top, where it’ll start gathering more likes on its own.
My comment:
“Comrades, do not listen to capitalist stooges like Marc Thiessen! Soon Obamacare shall be smashing all records like Norelsk Tractor Factory in last 5-year plan! By November 2017, National Socialist health rationing will rival Cuban medical system, free for all good comrades! And best of all, the diligent comrade commissars working day and night at the IRS-NSA-ACA data hubs will be able to track down last desperate right-wing reactionaries, and exclude them from glorious National Socialist medical rationing! Onward to victory, comrades! A new National Socialist day is coming in next glorious 5-year plan! Soviet-style Obamacare soon shall be envy of world!”
“Which is true, and which will function worse than 0bamacare.”
What’s to prevent people from going out and getting their own policy outside of Obamacare?
How can the government fine/tax you for not buying something that is unavailable for you to purchase?
Relax, Marc. The shutdown will end soon enough. And the ObamaCare implosion will still be there, bigger and better than ever.
Upset citizens are one thing....hospitals, doctors, nurses, et al demanding reimbursement from the government and being delayed, denied, or otherwise confused will cause the volume to reach earsplitting levels.
Yes we’ve had Medicaid and Medicare for decades but this will be both new and incomplete - a bad recipe.
What will be the breaking point for the doctors, nurses, hospitals, owners, etc. to seek a way out of their shotgun marriage to Uncle Sam?
Ha! Just came back from local grocery store and saw my first “I heart Obozocare”....
And so it begins......
