Again, a comedian(-iene) nails what our leaders can't: POUNDSTONE on ACA vs tech distinction

4. I just love Paula Poundstone.

She appears quite regularly on the NPR program Wait, Wait, Don't Tell me and she's a total hoot.

I can hear her voice as I read that piece.

Plus I don't think I know of a single major computer-related roll-out that hasn't had at least a few glitches. I've been on the user end any number of times over the years, and typically new computer systems are delayed weeks, months, or even years while they get it fixed right. My ex was an IT guy for about twenty years, and there was never a new programming thing he was connected to that didn't have problems at first. And NONE of these have been remotely on the scale of the ACA roll-out.

I do want to tell all the complainers who think it should be working perfectly from day one, to sit down and shut up.
