I am actually interested in hearing what your alternatives are. Opponents of ACA have been extremely tight lipped and/or vague about alternatives which generally suggests that they do not have any.

And just because a website rollout didn't go as planned does not mean that the program is fairing poorly. There have already been a number of key changes that have had a positive impact (a ton of my friends were able to maintain health coverage throughout the recession thanks to the age limit increase (26) for dependents). It's not perfect, but doing nothing was not an option simply because it would be a least a decade or more before the issue could have been addressed again.
