    In total, Oregon has spent nearly $250 million of the $305 million it received from the federal government under the Affordable Care Act.

    And how many people did they enroll? ZERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Money well spent.

    Oregon, which so far has failed to enroll a single person in coverage in one sitting through its exchange, decided to ditch the exchange because officials said fixing it would be too costly at $78 million and would take too long.

    Huh? Another $78 million to fix a mis-spent $250 million. These programmers must make $1000/hour. Because no one could develop and implement such a piss poor system after spending $250 million that would need this much MORE to fix it.

    Ohh, I'm sorry. Have they decided to resurrect their FAILED state run Odumbocare site? My bad!

    Let's deal with FACTS .. Oregon is a STATE in the US. They have CHOSEN to TERMINATE their FAILED attempt to offer Odumbocare. Any more stupid comments from you?

    REALITY .. Oregon has in fact decided to throw in the towel on their FAILED Odumbocare site.

    I'm sure you feel it's good to have WASTED $250 MILLION!!

    Jesus, are you messed up over this. Reread your own article. They are NOT giving up on Obamacare, they are giving up on their "in house" portal and going to the federal portal. Your thread title is false.

    Ahhh, yesss... the tender mercies of communism! 70-80% of doctors can't accept this shit because although a potential patient may struggle all the way through the sign up process and pay their premium but the doctors can't verify that they have insurance! I suppose that remaining 20-30% are in touch with their Senators, making some donations, etc. and figure they will get paid eventually.. or maybe they are communist idealogues and willing to take the financial hit to move the US towards the "perfect society".

    NOOOO!!

    They WASTED over $250 MILLION TAX DOLLARS. And after that they implied it would take $78 MILLION MORE to fix it.

    So I repeat they're giving up on their failed Odumbocare web site.

    Maybe you don't pay taxes ... I do!!

    You're not "repeating", because you said, "Oregon throws in the towel on Odumbocare".
