Forest Gump said it best, "stupid is as stupid does".
And all those "lawyers and good ol' buddies", were they wearing Blue Collars, would be in jail serving time for things they did before becoming Obama's "Counsel" . .
As for the ACA? A very bad idea at a very bad time. Add to that, as was noted, the lack of logisticians who can make something work. The Administration has had over 5 years to start designing, bulding and writing software to implement the program. They haven't done any of that, have no real idea of when it will be available, or what the glitches might be once it's up and running.
Add to that the many exemptions that Obama has granted to certain Corporations, Unions, Congress and other entities and you have a very corrupt, unweildy situation that will either have to be taken apart and rewritten, or as Congress is wont to do, they will tinker with it until it's very similar (almost is now) to the IRS Ruleset . . Incomprehensible to anyone but the deadbeats who will game it . .
The Liberal Mindset is that taxes should pay for everything you do, and Government is the extension that executes all that. The Liberal views that as a "Bargain" because everyone gets something for nothing. But never, in the history of the world, has any government been beneficial or efficient at running anything.
And Obama is dumber than many of those who have tried . . .
