I know, it's frustrating bro...The website working was never the primary goal. Getting health insurance for people was never the objective. It was always about government taking over 1/6th of America's economy.
I guess we're supposed love the idea of a socialist Utopia, and then ignore reality.
I guess we're supposed to feel good about charging up our electric cars by consuming energy from coal burning power plants...
Whats really frustrating is people calling the economic model we have Capitalism. We only have capitalism for the small and medium sized businesses, mom and pop stores, kids lemonade stands etc. etc. Those businesses on the verge of failing will get no help from government, small banks will get no help. Bankruptcy and sales of assets to the highest bidder ( Big 5 Bank) or former government insider (MF Global) are what is in store for them.

BUT, if you are a big 5 bank, you are not allowed to fail, if you are a large poorly managed corporation (GM) you will be bailed out at tax payer expense. You will not be allowed to fail, therefore that part of the economy isn't capitalism, its cronyism.
We don't have capitalism in this country, we have cronyism. The favored few can rape pillage and plunder as much as they wish, a small fine might be assessed for infractions against the law, or some low level lackey will be sacrificed to appease the dumb proletariat (that's us) that amendments are being made and bad people really do get punished. All the while the favored few are allowed to steal 50 billion , but only pay a fine of 5 billion and have to admit to no wrong doing. Makes me sick to see people getting screwed so hard out of their life savings or their promised pensions by these thieves.
The only way to win is to no longer play the game, get your money out of the crony bubble economy before it bursts. DO NOT buy stocks, sell them. If you feel you missed the boat, you have, don't swim after it now, you will drown. The market is at all time highs based on nothing but Fed induced monetary tulips. The Derivatives market is still UNREGULATED, the big banks don't have less derivative exposure compared to 2007, they have MUCH MORE. The bond market is the biggest bubble EVER, interest rates have been going up, bad news for bond holders.
I don't have an electric car, but I do have a 20K watt PV array. I sell a little bit of power back to the utility every month. I got 5 more years until it pays for itself.
