		<description><![CDATA[This dollar figure is a complete lie and obviously spread by people against the Affordable Healthcare Act. The entire budget for one year for the Web site, backend integration, secure infrastructure, all call center employees plus project management and many, many other line items was around $94 million dollars for 2013 alone.  So many ridiculous lies going around so don&#039;t believe everything you read.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That figure is not accurate. The $643m is the total value of this company&#039;s federal contracts for five years or more. It is clear though that the initially estimated $93m has been wildly exceeded. The question is, when their invoices come in, will they be paid? Almost certainly the answer is yes, no matter the state of the website. Would you be paid if you performed in the same manor? No. Neither would you be paid if your employer, for whatever reason, could not keep you working for some measure of time. It&#039;s called layoffs. Outside the UAW that means a paid vacation that has every likelihood of becoming permanent.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wrong. Time taken to debunk this &quot;story&quot;: &lt;30 seconds.

&quot;...an official at CGI [the contractor] told TheBlaze those saying the 
federal heath insurance exchange cost $634 million are incorrect. The official 
said this figure includes all of the company’s contracts for a Health and Human 
Services Department program over the last seven years, covering 114 transactions. The cost of building 
healthcare.gov was issued under this contract.&quot;

The cost of setting up healthcare.gov was $93.7 million.

The funny part of the &quot;defund Obamacare&quot; drive is that it is being led by the 
Heritage Foundation...and it was the Heritage Foundation that invented Obamacare 
as the &quot;market-driven&quot; alternative to &quot;socialist&quot; healthcare.]]></description>
