Critique #1

   healthcare.gov was set up because 36 states declined to set up their own exchanges, it was all the rage until it was open to the public and did not live up to any of the hype expected. USA Today posted an article about the new healthcare website and how it is causing more harm than good. They question why it took so long for any sort of action to take place and say the hearing should suggest changes in “the clumsy way the government buys and manages technology.” (USA Today) I completely agree with this article, after 3 years of this plan, shouldn't the website be flawless like none other complete with unicorns and rainbows shooting out of the wazoo? You would think so, especially after the government shutdown, it should be some sort of comeback to renew people’s faith in the government.   Is the website being a flop foretelling what the new healthcare plan will be?  Obama states once the website’s glitches are fixed and the website is appealing enough, people will be happy. Maybe they will be, at least until the healthcare plan comes into effect.
