They want a single-payer system.

I would have designed it for 10% of that!

Heard somebody on the radio the other day that said that he personally worked on the project....under government contract.

What he said the problem is.....that he would complete about 90% of a specific project and they would continuously amend the original contract specifications and as a result.....that final 10% was never able to be accomplished.

Everything was RUSH...RUSH...RUSH....but they never allowed him to complete a single project as originally ordered.

He was able to track the files being requested through a feature in the Firefox browser.

    Of the 92 he found, 56 were JavaScript files, including plug-ins that make it easier for code to work on multiple browsers (such as Microsoft Corp's Internet Explorer and Google Inc's Chrome) and let users upload files to HealthCare.gov.

    It is not clear why the upload function was included.

That's good; uploading scripts that way is a good way to compromise your system - or some other user's system - by letting hackers upload malicious code.

And it'd probably be 110% better, too!

Last I heard, contracts were given out to relatives of (gasp) big ole Obama donors.  And the latest estimates I heard (not including needed fixes) approached one billion--with a "B".  (Wonder why they bypassed the lovely Eric Schmidt for this project?)
