Bwahaha… Worst President ever!

When you try to run software that’s incompatible with your hardware, this is what happens. ObamaCare’s failure is spectacular, and not just the coast-to-coast sharknado of error messages, system crashes, pages not found, and unresponsive technical support. The data processing problems will eventually be worked out; every computer problem can be solved, if you’re willing to spend enough time and money on the effort. The commissars of ObamaCare aren’t spending their own money, and they couldn’t care less how long it takes to get things up and running, since they believe they have permanently and irrevocably altered America’s society, economy, and politics.

Maybe they should have put less money into propaganda slush funds for left-wing special interests, and hired some more IT guys… but they know they have an unlimited line of credit to handle all that infrastructure stuff later. In fact, ObamaCare’s failure will be folded neatly into the relentless demand for more money from the American people. Anyone who objects to borrowing more money from China to get the exchanges up and running will be portrayed as a heartless monster who just wants to let poor people die, a careless anarchist who’s ready to throw away all the time and money already poured into ObamaCare. In a year, or six months, or whenever we hit the debt ceiling again, anyone who hesitates to raise it will be accused of trying to duck out on bills Congress has already incurred. Then we’ll be told that anyone who really cared about the deficit would be eager to pay more in taxes to reduce it a bit. Those foolish enough to buy that argument will not notice that the national debt just keeps piling up, no matter how much money we hand over to the big spenders.
