Another ObamaCare Cost: Feds gave $4.4B to states for exchange websitesThe Obama administration gave states roughly $4.4 billion in taxpayer dollars to set up their own ObamaCare websites, according to a new analysis, in the latest revelation about the faucet of federal spending switched on by the 2010 passage of the health care law.Some of the states even took federal money, then decided to let the federal site handle enrollment. While the steep cost of HealthCare.gov -- which is the federally run site -- has come under fire, the money granted to the states has so far generated little attention. And while the 14 state-run sites have operated more smoothly than the problem-plagued federal site and have accounted for the lion’s share of signups, the federal money spent on tech support, advertising and other startup costs have hardly yielded the level of customer enthusiasm and participation the administration projected.
