#1 The eight-page report made no mention of the website's numerous security flaws, which experts say put Americans' personal information at risk.

The Info-Security of college transcripts, US Passports, associates, financial data, and travel of Indonesian and Kenyan Muslim foreign students must come first. Must I call the White House to sort this out?

#2 "There are a number of security concerns already with the website, and that's without even actually hacking the site, that's just a purely passive analysis of [it]," he said. "We found a number of critical exposures that were around sensitive information, the ability to hack into the site, things like that. We reported those issues and none of those appear to have been addressed at all."

#3 Wouldn't it just be quicker and easier for the people "signing up to just go downtown and hand out their credit cards, checkbook, etc., to whatever stranger walks by?

Sure, they'll probably have all their personal information stolen and their credit rating ruined (presuming they even have one), and they won't actually have real health insurance, but that's what's going to happen anyway if they actually sign up at the website, isn't it?

#4 Nah, all the folks signing up are too poor to have credit cards. Just Obamaphones and EBT cards.
