These bastards grifted $300 million dollars from my state to build a single website for the Healthcare exchange after the ACA was passed. It never once worked and was scrapped for the federal government's own version immediately after its "release." To be fair, I also blame our state leaders for this as even your average moron could see this coming from a mile away. Even if it did work, who the fuck would spend 1/3 of a billion dollars to build a webpage.

I totally agree which is why i said even an average moron would have seen through this. They only like to pretend to be working for the people when elections are near.
