		<description><![CDATA[The web site is not &quot;a bridge.&quot; This web site designed to sign up new clients. The web site will not provide continuous service to new users, or at least the same kind of &quot;service&quot; needed for initial sign-up. Your analogy fails for more reasons as well because bridges are expected to last for many years with relatively low maintenance costs and an income stream from toll payers. 

Any way you slice it, we&#039;re talking about finance. Spending that kind of money to get people to sign up for medical insurance (a financial product) is insane.

The ACA is supposed to save money. If it does not save money, it is a complete failure. Wealth redistribution can happen any number of ways. The ACA does not contribute technology or provide services. It limits services and limits options so that we supposedly make smarter medical decisions which will save money and redistribute some of that &quot;saved&quot; money to subsidize &quot;the poor&quot; who didn&#039;t have insurance before. So far all the ACA has done is burn through money, wasted people&#039;s time and led to all kinds of chaos from the top to the bottom of all medical service and product providers.

How many years will we have to wait while &quot;saving&quot; all of that money from &quot;smart decisions&quot; before the $30 grand is recovered? When will we reap the benefits of all of these &quot;smart&quot; decisions that the elites (Marxists) worked out for us?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Like a bridge, the most expensive part of a website is building it (design and development/testing/fixing). True even for such a poorly planned project like the ACA site. Both bridges and websites need continuous maintenance; and as a PM who works tech projects, I&#039;d bet that the maintenance for the ACA site is in the contract (thus attached to the numbers you provided).]]></description>
