It’s easy to say the government always screws things up and, therefore,
the crash of its Obamacare sign-up system is merely another example of
gross incompetence. But this is shortsighted. White House officials knew, months ago, the
online site was an unmitigated disaster, and yet they let the train
continue speeding down the track to its inevitable crackup. To understand this, we need to go back to the opening salvo in the Obamacare drama. To his advisors’ shock and surprise, Obama, taking office in 2009,
announced that his first big move was going to be national health
insurance. His people assumed jobs would be the top priority. The nation was
clamoring for a solution. People were out of work. Banks were
foreclosing on homes. Families were in peril. How could the President misread the national mood so badly? National health insurance? Now? Where the hell did that come from?
