And I will bet the ranch that 10 years from now some person’s name will come up still on that list and the person will be dragged through the streets as a sex offender.

It's a website that FReepers rush to post from, without realizing it's satire.

Insurance companies could do that by “accident” and make huge profits from it—even kickbacks from other “industries.”

I heard next they are coming out with “Michellecare” You have to sign up to have special Michelle Obama qualified food delivered and if you don’t you get fined. I’m not kidding, this guy at work told me that and I don’t know if he was pulling my leg or not. I wouldn’t put anything past this administration, they’re already pulling this food crap at school so why not the general population as well?

I love it - but it would be slightly more on point if they claimed that ObamaCare set up all new registrants with automatic payroll deductions for DNC contributions. :)

It might not be satire when we find out that in order to make the numbers look good they begin to enroll sex offenders, prisoners, illegal aliens, dead people registered as democrats, etc.

So, What exactly is the difference between signing up at Heathcare.gov verses the National Sex Offender Public Website?

(Insert joke here)

It’s hard to do satire when reality is so outrageous to begin with. THIS IS ACTUALLY PLAUSIBLE.
