(San Francisco Business Times) So two weeks in, ‘Covered California’ is piling on the statistics, releasing late on Tuesday a flurry of figures: Number of visitors to its website since ObamaCare’s roll-out; Number of calls to its call centers; Number of navigators but the one number that is peculiarly missing is, how many people have actually completed applications for coverage?
Of course one must be suspicious in the accuracy of any data provided subsequent to state officials admitting that they exaggerated lied about the actual number of visitors the website received by 10 fold, during the first day of ObamaCare’s roll out.

The Senate/House bill voted on tonight ending the 16 day ‘Government Slimdown’ which funds ObamaCare and suspends the debt ceiling, contained a $2.9 Billion Congressional earmark for Kentucky Senate RINO Mitch McConnell.
In related news, New York RINO Rep Pete King (R-NY) claimed today that the debt ceiling fiasco is a victory for America.
Riiight…Tell that too the Bonnie Doon Ice Cream employees in Indiana, the latest ObamaCare casualties that have just been laid-off this week.
Whatever happened to the GOP Pledge to America ‘that bills are debated and discussed in the public square by publishing the text online for at least three days before coming up for a vote in the House of Representatives.” They Lied.
AETNA CEO Bertolini: “So Much Wrong” With ObamaCare Exchange

(CNBC ) AETNA Insurance CEO Mark Bertolini on Monday, gave a critical review of ObamaCare marketplace exchange saying, “There’s so much wrong, you just don’t know whats broken until you get a lot more of it fixed.”
Asked by CNBC if he (Bertolini) knew that the roll out of ObamaCare would be problematic, AETNA CEO Bertolini added, his giant company’s role as an alpha tester for the system gave it a sense of how many problems ObamaCare faced on the eve of its launch.
“We were pretty nervous as we got further along,” said Bertolini, “As they started missing deadlines, we were pretty convinced it was going to be a difficult launch.”
Bertolini’s fears have been realized he said and the technological debacle seen at ObamaCare is one similar to just the handful he’s witnessed over the years.
On the 29 May, I wrote here that AETNA Insurance, together with United Health Group and CIGNA have chosen to opt out of ‘Covered California’ the nation’s largest health insurance exchange–if ObamaCare is so wonderful, why would they do this?
What do they know that you don’t?

(Christian Science Monitor) Cybersecurity experts are voicing concerns about the ObamaCare website system that could open the door to theft of personal information adding the government site lacks defenses to prevent an attacker from putting an invisible layer over the legitimate website–as a result, a user clicking on a link or button might end up at a renegade site that looks the same.
The ObamaCare site appears not to use a feature that prevents access to cookies that are stored on a users personal computer and basic problems with the ObamaCare site could invite cybercriminals to use automated systems to hack individual accounts according to researchers at TrustedSec in Strongsville, Ohio noted that there were no features to prevent an intruder from using an automated program to try repeatedly to enter the site even if it didn’t get a login try correct.

(ARS Technica) ObamaCare hits reset button on passwords as contractors scramble–3.50 years wasn’t enough time for the Obama Administration/HHS to get the IT effort past the finishing line.
According to Digital Trends the taxpayers have spent $634,320,919.00 for ObamaCare’s broken website, which cost more than Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram, a really poor expenditure of taxpayers money–a sign of things to come for government managed health care.
