Just saw on my local 11PM news last night that they did a poll on their website asking "Have you tried to sign up for Obamacare and how did it go?" 0% answered that they had tried and it went smoothly, 16% said they tried and had problems, 84% said they had not tried.
Aside from the fact that, of those polled, nobody has singed up with no issues, I find it concerning that the website is having so much trouble handling the scores of people trying to sign up and 6/7ths of the people in my area haven't even tried yet. If the website can't handle the traffic now what is going to happen when people really start trying to sign up?

For some reason, the database that healthcare.gov uses as the base pricing for all of the plans is found here and is not password protected:
https://data.healthcare.gov/dataset/...cape/ba45-xusy
If you take all 70,000+ plans and calculate the average premium for 27 year olds, you get an average cost of $266.20/month. How many of these 27 year olds will have almost $3200 per year in extra disposable income to spend on healthcare?
