No kidding. Thanks, Mr. Burton. But with all due respect, this time, we’re definitely not gonna take your word for it.
And we’re not alone:
@levarburton my GF attempted to sign up. It would be roughly $450/month.
Calling it "Affordable" is an absolute insult to our intelligence.— Freeloader Gaming (@FreeloaderGamer) March 14, 2014
@levarburton you have obviously not tried to enroll. It's very complicated and the help line is NO help. And after 3 days … NO COVERAGE

@levarburton Mr Burton, it really is disappointing to see you reduced to government lap dog. #geeksgetcovered
