The failure of the Obamacare website has brought new prominence to the word "glitch". No matter what goes wrong on the exchange site, president Obama and his people call it a glitch. It used to be that glitches were minor problems. You know the type of error of which I speak; your computer freezes once every fifty times you use it-- that's a glitch. So how did the Obamacare exchange become "glitch central"?
First it was impossible to get on the site at all. That's a glitch.
Second, once you got on the site, it was impossible to leave it. That's a glitch.
Third, if you tried to sign up for an account, the site would not let you. That's a glitch.
Fourth, if you put your information into the system to get an account, the system did not keep it safe and confidential. That's a glitch?
Fifth, if you wanted to see what your insurance would cost, the system gave out the wrong information. That's a glitch???
Sixth, if you managed to sign up for an account, the system would not let you buy insurance. That's a glitch.
Seventh, if you think you signed up for insurance, many times you really did not since the site just dumped the data once you thought you were done. That's a glitch.
So, in summary, you can't get on or off the site; you can't open an account; you can't get accurate information about available insurance; and you can't actually buy insurance if you try. Then to top it all off, the system gives out your personal information to others.
It's not a glitch. It's a total disaster.
