For anyone wondering, the Obama administration has already built in a system for letting people who tried to sign up in the next couple days but didn't complete an application sign up without a fine in preparation for this. I'm sure it won't handle all cases and seems odd given how strict they said the deadline would be, but just for clarity of debate I wanted that out there.

Real Response:
It's not so much a system as a "we're really not going to enforce this deadline for most people." It's not much of a system, it's more of a "we'll look the other way for some amount of time".
Snark Response: The Obama administration built a system for buying health insurance, and here we are... Presumably this system will work better?

"a system for buying health insurance"
Except they didn't, as we usually view ecommerce sites. It sends (often erroneous) signup info to insurers, and it's between you and them to arrange payment.
