(561 posts)9. What the MSM isn't telling people
The Federal Website is for people who live in States that didn't sign on to a state health exchange. Those particular States are for the most part TeaBagger influenced, who are now paying the price for being thickheaded and not creating their own system.
Sorry for the people that are having trouble signing up, but they really should put the blame for their predicament on their state officials.
The exchanges in Nevada and California are running smoothly even according to the MSM.
As for the Federal Exchange I am reminded of the statement of Buzz Aldrin who upon landing on the Moon said something like "Here I am on the Moon, sitting in something that was built by the lowest bidder.."

Please ignore the OP. I have been told that healthcare.gov is completely broken :)

I don't know what your E/R experience is lately, but a 10 minute visit for antibiotics will run

Looking at the plans you linked to, they're actually pretty awful. Is your link correct?

Upon closer examination, this site doesn't appear to have anything to do with the ACA.

I just talked to a rep on the phone and she was very very vague about somethings

Exactly, so you can't trust the A- rating because of the way they figure ratings.
