Obama has been toiling for years to create his Obamacare website and has spent billions of our tax dollars in the attempt. Thus far he’s utterly failed to deliver a working website. But three 20-year-old computer programmers in San Francisco only took three days to create a working Obamacre website and they built it of the real site’s own computer code.
The three young men whipped up their version of Obamacare in but days working in their off time and called it healthsherpa.com.
Unlike the Obamacare website, Ning Liang, George Kalogeropoulous and Michael Wasser’s new site shows Americans the info they really want to see. Signing onto Helathsherpa will show healthcare plans and pricing available. All you do is enter your zipcode, and there it is.
The three are continuing to tweak their site to give visitors even more information, too. Just this weekend they added a section that will help visitors find out if they qualify for a tax subsidy.

“There was no thought of, ‘How do we make money this time?'” web developer Wasser told CBS News. “It was like, ‘This is a problem that we know we can solve in a really short period of time. So let’s just do it.'”
The only thing Healthsherpa doesn’t do is connect visitors directly to the insurance companies so that visitors can actually buy the policy.
So these three guys can create a website that does the same sort of things that the Obamacare website is supposed to do and they did it in only a few day’s time? Yet Obama has struggled for years to create a broken, mess of a site that no one can use?
That is the failure and inefficiencies of government all over, isn’t it?
And we want these people to take care of our very health?
