So we spent 667 m for 3.3 m that's about 200K each.

And we all know this site is far north of the $$$ reported.

And thats just the website.

And the state of Oregon spent 300+ million on that site. Don't really have a dog in that fight, but I do pay Oregon income tax.

No chit. You would think they would've gone back to drinking coffee by now.
The funny thing is that they think that running on this single issue of repealing the ACA in November is going to somehow create this amazing phantasmagorical groundswell of support for the 'Do Nothing and Know Nothing Party. That's what happens when you live in an echo chamber as evidenced in the last presidential election. They ran on repealing the ACA fullbore and what happened? They lost seats in the House and the Dems gained seats in the Senate. Hmmmmm, there might be a trend there.

Despite the computer glitches, about 33,000 have enrolled in federal health exchanges in Oregon.

They need 40% youth enrollment to pay for this ponzi scheme, the have 25%.

Along with all the other false figures that the administration releases, they don't know a "Paid For" number yet.
Yeah, you've repeatedly parroted that latest talking point that the President can't be trusted 427. So, let me ask you this,
since when does any endeavor (private or public) close out their balance sheet in midstream? Give this old nailpounder a hand here, you bizness geniuses. I may not have a parchment from Wharton Business School but ain't you guys counting yer chickens before they come home to roost?

Yes, but not through the website. The website hasn't been functional yet, so none have enrolled through it.

True, but I doubted that zero had signed up under the ACA, as was indicated. One hopes that there will be some recompense from the vendors who have not delivered the software that was purchased.

On the other hand, the numbers we are talking about are not expenditures, but investments. One does not expect such things as an investment in a computer/software system to pay off in the first few months and not even in the first few years. I just hope that the systems that are being put in place are readily convertible to a single payer system.

Regards,

D-Ray

Right on. Usually one expects to hear NO on just about everything from two year old's. I still remember the days when I used kid around with my then two year old daughter to say yes instead of no. Used to be hilarious, she would scream the word NO even louder.

So what comes after NO? When do the baggers start behaving like responsible adults?
