Sign-ups for Obama Care start October 1 -

How're things looking where you live?

Here in New York, the web site is a typical example of bureuacratic overkill (we pride ourselves on using 4 forms when 1 when do!) but I think sign-ups will go smoothly and the premium numbers look great!

The website's actually been up and running for a few weeks as preliminary to start of signups, with several ancillary websites for info and further links.

We're looking good!

#1 in the nation for children living under the poverty line, #7 in the nation for number of women murdered by men. Do you think any redneck asshole in this state is lifting a finger when it comes to health care? We are well and truly fucked. Again.
