Not one Obamacare thread on page 1?

The fuck? You guys are slippin.

Anyhow.

Like I've said before I was one who got my insurance cancelled as of 12/31/14 so I needed new stuff.

I found my best price on the marketplace, signed in, signed up and waited 7 days for Blue Cross to contact me.

I called them and I was in the system, things had been mailed and would arrive soon the girl said.

The girl who answered the phone personally in about thirty seconds after some prompts.

Took my bank info for auto pay and my cards arrive next week.

Point is...Im one who is getting a huge increase, but the system worked flawlessly and between signing up and on with HealthInsurance.gov and communicating with BCBS took about fifteen minutes total.

So.

Theres that.

Let your chains rest comfortably on your shoulders...

The chains of personal responsibility are somewhat of a burden, thankfully you'll never have to know them.

Even the IRS is relatively easier to contact and do business with. Doesn't mean anyone is enthusiastic in doing so.

The first hiccups with the website, I believe, were a feature not a bug. Many reporters commented on the fact that unless you were going to get a subsidy, it hung up on giving you information on rates.

This year it was a lot smoother, because of the discretion written into the lay on such things as enrollment periods, they simply delayed making the new rates take effect until after the election.

Yes that demographic is HUGE in comparison to the potentially 340,000,000 people it was designed to serve.

I really enjoy the ways you say, "you don't know what you're talking about" without actually demonstrating that you know what you're talking about.

Well, we have that mutual joy in common. I have always admired how your can slip a little snarky comment in without discussing the subject at hand at all.

they've had a year to iron out the bugs, and they've been largely successful in doing so, as evidenced by the lack of outrage threads from miles the schmuck and the Vettebigot this year.


*snicker* "Potentially 340,000,000 Americans!"

I was buying health insurance when you were still learning to jack off.

Why are you picturing Rob jacking off?

Except it was never meant nor designed for that sort of load. You must be thinking of a single payer, which the ACA is most definitely not.

Non-sequiturs are his stock in trade.
