To make it work for whom? The way I see it, the only ones getting screwed here are insurance companies. They are the ones stuck providing coverage for sick people with pre-existing conditions, yet won't have that pool of young healthy people paying the premiums they were promised. As for the government, they will be able to count on additional tax revenues for those who opt out without taking on any additional liability.
This Administration could care less if young healthy people sign up. Their overall goal is to put insurance companies out of business and replace them with Big Government. It wouldn't surprise me one bit to learn that all these glitches are intentional. They already know who tried to access the web site. That is all the information they needed for adding these names to Democrat Party mailing lists.
The idea of the exchange is very similar to how health insurance operates today, but with more mandates.
They have to establish a risk pool of givers and takers, cant just print $$$ the way medicare and medicaid get theirs. More takers than givers and it goes broke, or raises premiums and deductibles
HARDLY! The bailouts for them are already written into law!
Too early to tell how that theory will work out.
I have a bad feeling Boehner will agree:
“We have to fix ObamaCare, before we can repeal it!”
