Serving Oregon’s South Coast Since 1878 MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2013 Cover Oregon Bay Area clings to its dream says ‘goodbye’

BY JONATHAN J. COOPER to Natalie Hill Associated Press

SALEM — With a reputation as a pacesetter in health care, Oregon laid out bold plans for complying with the federal overhaul. The state wouldn’t just create a health insurance exchange, a complicated undertaking in its own right. Oregon officials set out to build one of the biggest and best in the nation — a model that other states would want to copy. But more than a month after Cover Oregon’s online enrollment was sup- posed to launch, reality is lagging far behind Gov. John Kitzhaber’s grand ideas. The online system still doesn’t work, and the exchange has yet to enroll a single person in health insurance. Interviews with state officials and a review of public records by The Asso- ciated Press suggest Cover Oregon officials bit off more than they could chew and clung to their ambitious vision even when their risk manage- ment consultants raised alarms. While rushing to get the exchange done, programmers and project managers also were busy with separate complex computer projects for the Oregon Health Authority and the Department of Human Services. Cover Oregon officials say they’re working hard to finish the project and insist the features they’re creating will be worth the wait — even if it remains Photos by Alysha Beck, The World unclear when the site will go online.

We need an industry that is clean and For a family that is right on the median income, $72,230, the annual premium would still be $8,088, but the taxpayer- paid subsidy would fall to $1,226, meaning the family would pay, with its own money, $6,862 for the coverage. Is that a better deal than they have now? Maybe yes, and maybe no. In any event, they won’t save as much as the president promised. Finally, choose a higher income level, but one at which there are still a lot of people. For a family of four with an income of $85,000, the premium remains $8,088 but the subsidy shrinks to just $13 a year, meaning the family will pay, with its own money, $8,075 for coverage. So that family will technically receive help with its health care costs — but not really. For families above that level, and there are a lot of them, the subsidy will be $0. The bottom line is, when — or if — large numbers of people actually begin purchas- ing coverage on the Obamacare exchanges, many will find the much-touted subsidies aren’t for them. And that will be the key question of Oba- macare: Will it help more people than it hurts, or will it hurt more people than it helps? If the answer is the former, Oba- macare might become a permanent feature of American life. If the answer is the latter, it will be politically unsustainable and will fail. The administration and its defenders might argue that the numbers will be a bit different, that some premiums could be lower or subsidies higher.But the basics are the same: Obamacare is all about subsidies, Remember vets on this special day and “affordable” means the government is paying for all or part of it.

A6• The World • Monday, November 11,2013 DILBERT I’d rather have the money, Bob Did you see us? My FRANK AND ERNEST husband Harold and I were on TV with Bob Barker. Before you run to check your TiVo, I’d better tell you this was a while ago. Try 1971. We were plucked from the live audience of that old favorite, Truth or Consequences, along with two other couples. Ours was a kind of “newlywed game” THE BORN LOSER EVERYDAY stunt. They CHEAPSKATE put the guys in a sound- proof booth and we ladies had to predict how our Mary hus- Hunt bands ZITS would answer questions. Of course the hubs and I won. And a mighty fine prize it was: $50 and a blender! We already had a blender, so I remember thinking I’d rather have the money. We could have walked away with $85. Catching Bob on reruns of “The Price is Right” CLASSIC PEANUTS brings back fond memories. And whenever some lucky contestant wins that Showcase — a mish- mash of all kinds of stuff THE FAMILY CIRCUS to clutter their lives — I can almost hear what the winner is thinking: I’d rather have the money, Bob! But instead, the winner gets all the stuff and has to pay taxes on the full retail value to FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE boot. (We got off easy, not much tax due on $50 and a blender.) Every day you should be telling yourself the same thing: I’d rather have the money! Let’s say you see a great new pair of shoes you simply cannot resist. They’re on sale ... this won’t last and it’s such a great deal. No matter how you pay for them (cash, credit, check), it’s a done ROSE IS ROSE deal. You’ve got the shoes, they’ve got your money. Here’s where your thinking gets all messed up. Your choices, you believe, are to either: 1) have the shoes or 2) not have the shoes. One is a happy outcome, the other negative, or so you believe. How would your deci- LUANN sion change if the sales- man had the shoes in one hand and the $50 cash in the other? Would you take the shoes, or the money? That is ex actly the choice you have with every purchase. Either you get the — fill in the blank — or you get the money. Either you buy the shoes or leave $50 in your bank account. If you could see your GRIZZWELLS lifetime earnings in one big pile of money and how each spending decision diminishes the amount you get to keep, I have a feeling you would take your decision much more seriously. You’d opt to take the money more often than the stuff to clutter your life. The next time you think of spending money —any amount — ask yourself: Do I really want this, or would I rather have the money?

■ Real Salt Lake beats Portland 4-2 in first leg of conference final

SANDY, Utah (AP) — One year after making an early playoff exit while struggling to score as the season wound down, it’s a much different story for Real Salt Lake this time. Robbie Findley scored the go- ahead goal in the first half and had an assist in the second half, leading Real Salt Lake to a 4-2 victory over the Portland Timbers in the first leg of the Western Conference finals on Sunday night. Chris Schuler, Devon Sandoval and Javier Morales also scored for Salt Lake, which will take a two-goal advantage into the second leg of the series on Nov. 24. Salt Lake scored three goals in a 13-minute stretch starting with Schuler’s tally in the 35th that tied it 1-1. By Alysha Beck, The World “There’s a lot of guys on the North Bend’s girls soccer team celebrates a win over Klamath Union after going into overtime and a penalty kick shootout on Saturday. team willing to work,” Findley said. “They put the work in early and it showed tonight.

Team percentages are derived by dividing a team’s actu- al voting points by a maximum 2625 possible points in the Harris Interactive Poll and 1550 possible points in the USA Today Coaches Poll. Six computer rankings are used to determine the overall computer component. The highest and lowest ranking for each team is dropped, and the remaining four are added and divid- ed to produce a Computer Rankings Percentage. The six computer ranking providers are Anderson & Hester, Richard Billingsley, Colley Matrix, Kenneth Massey, Jeff Sagarin, and Peter Wolfe. Each computer ranking accounts for schedule strength in its formula. Photos by The Associated Press Arizona quarterback B.J.
