It needs to stay broken forever.
The vast majority of software engineers are Libertarians. They only have idiot liberals available to run the website.
I don’t think the answer is very difficult. it takes expertise and competence to do software engineering. can you imagine the affirmative action hires working on obamacare.
I can tell you from experience, affirmative action hires cannot write code.
Gotta wonder if Libertarian hackers have sent or will send a Stuxnet type virus into the ObamaCare website. Hee! Hee!
They can take their deadlines and penalties and shove `em.
I think the BIG government IT boys are still trying to fix the food stamp machine. The ObamaCare website is going to wait. Barry’s “children” are out there starving right now!
Obama & his cohorts will refuse to acknowledge that the problems are more than easy-fix glitches, and they will refuse to accept help from those who know how to fix the website.
They do not want it to be fixed.
Lowest bidder?
Having worked in software, data processing, programming and IT for 40+ years, I offer this tried and true theorem:
The first 90% of a project takes 90% of the time.
The remaining 10% takes the other 90%.
Proved time after time after time. And rarely taken into account by contractors or clients.
I am stunned to read that programming on this behemoth didn’t start until this past spring. Designed to fail?
A brilliant analysis. Love your post.
As we used to snark in the automotive industry when talking about mechatronic systems...
“Let’s change the software, it’s free and happens instantly”

I have been in healthcare for 33 years as a physician assistant. The elephant in the room is that the government cannot even get the website right...and they are going to dole out healthcare??? I can’t even imagine the mistakes in diagnosis coding, medication errors and billing as well as a mass exodus of American schooled doctors that await people when this thing gets in to full swing. I work at a large hospital in Alabama and everyone I come into contact with in the course of the day (healthcare workers) basically agrees that this has nothing to do with healthcare as so many of you have posted already. It has everything to do with crashing the Republic as we know it. It’s called a Trojan Horse.
Keep it broken forever by visiting often.
I’ve posted this before, but the FED bureaucrats who I worked for, signed off on every stage of my projects until the end. It was the FINAL stage that I always realized that they never read the outlines or specs. But, what the hell do they care?? It’s not like it’s their money or as if they will be held to account! This same class of worthless and talentless mashed potatoes will retire early on upper 5 figures. Pathetic.
I hope some hackers make sure of that.

I, too, have worked with software systems - 30+ years in teleom. The way that they implemented this system is nothing short of a MASSIVE CF.
Check out my thread from yesterday:

You know, this type of system ain’t rocket science - its simple order processing. Amazon processes like 20 million orders per day.
Amazon lets you shop [ie: browse healthcare plans based on generic info - age, location, income, etc.], THEN you check out and give specific data [ie: name, address, SSN, etc.].
Amazon then sends standardized, complete, AND accurate order form to its warehouses [ie: healthcare providers].
The government coulda followed the Amaon model and made sort of a “clone” of it for like $1 million bucks ...
To think that a new software system that is dependent on a number of old antiquated federal systems is insane.
