Website crashes. Give no extension. Tell evryone “you can thank the black guy for the website being so shitty and you having no insurance.”
the open enrollment period starting on November 1 has gone fairly smoothly, with few technical hangups and a brisk pace of signups.
But, but, but ObamaCare is FAILING! Remember healthcare.gov? People are STILL waiting in line from the first time because ObamaCare was a faily fail fail failingly failish failure from the first time anyone ever thought of it!
(God, the poor people who have to live with the uncertainty of keeping their insurance under the orange madman.)
EDIT: Oh, and good work Alice!
Why demand extensions?
How about a simple: “Here’s how it is, folks. You wanna vote Republican? Fine. Here’s the results. You’re fucked. Want to not get fucked the next time? Vote Democratic.”
It went down all by itself, honest it did!
I got an e-mail this morning from my State Senator today reminding me that deadlines for Covered California are quickly approaching. It says that renewals must be submitted by 12/15/17 and that open enrollment for new insureds runs through 1/31/18. It gives links and telephone numbers.
Yay for being in a big blue state.
GOP response: Don’t be ridiculous. If we fund an extensive for healthcare sign-ups (as meager as that cost might be), there might not be enough money to fund Pruitt’s privacy booth!!!
And once Pruitt gets his then they’ll all want one of their own.
The federal government has turned into a mean entity on anything that the Republicans don’t want to work…I’m sure that there are some people in the civil service who don’t want it that way, but they have to follow the orders of the political arm, and the ones that just can’t seem to be leaving (and not being replaced). Things not working well is a feature, not a bug…I wonder how degraded the services will become before the Republicans finally have to pay for their destruction of our governmental systems.
O/T Change is in the air. It’s coming.
Wow! A letter. The dems are really bringing the heavy guns out now.
Jeeves, get me my quill, the black one. It’s time to write an angry letter to the Times.
Because democrats, silly wimps that they are, don’t want some people to die because some other people voted for a criminal jerk.
Waterboarding? … think about it.
Good article, Ms. Ollstein. Thank you.
