What does signing up for Medicare have to do with the ACA web site??? Medicare started in 1965, long before the internet was available. It migrated services to the web over a 7 year time period. Basically did it one feature at a time. So it had the time to correct issues, remain secure, and be tested before implementation. Also the internet use for Medicare grew very slowly over a 12 year time window.

So very sorry, I don't understand the analogy at all.
