Glitch

One of the main computer glitches in Obamacare is caused by the fact that they want the poor people to see the subsidies they will receive if they sign up. This means they must first enter all their personal financial data before their subsidy can be calculated. The fear is that if people see the cost before the subsidy they will get turned off and not apply. Typically a person living near the poverty level will get insurance at no cost but it will show their cost as $200 per month or so. Once the subsidy is applied their cost is much less.
