What a can of worms. Anyone with half a brain would s***can this immediately or at the very least put it on hold until Pelosi and 0bummer can explain how it will work and “make” it work...I know that won’t happen.
Ping.
Just another feature for a train wreck.
Pelosi and Zero explaining computer technology is like expecting a chicken to do algebra.
Let us never lose sight of the fact that nobamacare is merely a conveyor belt to single payer.
Wonder how many congressional staffers have even enrolled ? Bet they did not even test this software with staff. Time to fire these losers.
Yes, but it looks like a way stop on that road is "no-payer." If no one knows whether someone is enrolled or not, premiums won't be billed or credited properly, and benefits will be denied to those who did everything they could to comply. They'll have to walk in the hospital front door, which is what this program was supposed to minimize.
I’m loving it.
Absolutely. This current system is designed to fail, and destroy private sector insurance in the process.
Only then can ObamaCommieCare be ushered in.
5000 and 51,000.
Really not a mystery.
Given the miserable performance of the Federally run Exchanges for 34 states the following would be good ballpark estimates of their actual performance:
51,000 Registered but all but 5000 not committed to a plan.
5000 enrolled in a plan
The MSM continues to confuse these figures.
And note: 5000 registered in a week or two is a tiny fraction of what it will take to make Obamacare viable.

++++++++++
Oops. Make that 5000 ENROLLED in a week or two ...
OMB wants 7 million enrolled in a plan by Dec. 15th of this year. That’s the minimum number necessary to properly finance the system in it’s first year, beginning Jan. 1 2014, according to them.
At the current rate of 5K a week, they’ll be about 6,960,000 enrollees short come Dec. 15th.
Train wreck nothing, it is a full-fledged, all-American clusterf***.
I have also read about bad data going from the exchanges to insurers, to the point where it is unusable. If anything kills Obamacare in the short term, it will be insurers blocking anything coming from the exchanges for the sake of the data integrity of their own systems.
But wait, we have heard stories here on how many of Obama’s FB/Twitter followers are fake. This is an MO of his. He relishes using the fluidity of digital data to create a false impression of numerical support. Why could this not be the same sort of thing, at least it part? Fake sign-ins, followed by deletions, run not from outside users, but insiders running code? Politically, it is essential to come up with orders of magnitude more applicants than a mere 5000. When I heard the 51,000 number being kicked around, I wondered how that could be. But this, plus the registration versus enrollment distinction mentioned elsewhere, begins to make sense of it. Not saying its definitely so, just saying there was motive, means, and opportunity.
