Why would a website that took over 600 million dollars and 3 years to develop not work?

Because it was a government project. The top people are not accountable.

Once you un-compress and add the whitespace back to the javascript, its blatantly obvious the code is incomplete. Straight up ugly actually..

You are truly underestimating the governments incompetence and infinite capacity to waste money.

Turning it into a government project is sabotage.

Prez Bush himself trained eagles to fly into the windmills.
I think he is behind the FUXNET virus too.

Not unless the saboteurs were the coders who wrote the ghastly javascript that runs them. There are blogs which have posted parts of the source code, making it clear it maybe, at best, was ready for alpha testing, which plainly was never done. It was released without either alpha or beta testing, and as a result would crash even under a user load of one per day.

I looked at just the PR side pages at healthcare.gov, and found that while not flawed or incomplete as the bloggers had found the operational pages to be, the code looks like it was generated by an automated program, rather than actual programmers — incredibly long and needlessly complex code to render a page whose only content was a nice graphic and a bunch of pulldown menus, scant documentation. If any FReepers actually wade into the thing to do a test sign-up, I hope they’ll grab a copy of the source code from the pages where things go awry.

Of course, even with good coding, the whole idea of sending a government website to do the market’s job sounds was fool’s errand to begin with. (It’s the kind of idiocy the left has engaged in since at least Lenin, who thought that running an industrial enterprise took no skill or intelligence.)

This is amateur hour.

First page of registration has 56 Java Script callouts and 11 CSS stylesheets.

No need for a virus in my opinion. If it ain't fixed, don't break it.

May all of their computers experience the Blue Screen of Death.

With all due respect, of course.

Maybe they should call Kim Komando....

This is how the federal gov't works. You should be thankful only 600 million was wasted.

That brings to mind the greater (and more frightening) point. This is the kind of gross incompetence we can expect when these Acorn type wannabe bureaucrats are rendering decisions affecting the health of our bodies.

The Blue Pill Of Death.

Because it's a federal government projeect. You really didn't expect it to work, did you?

It isn’t a website. It is actually a web application, a very big one. A web site just serves content and pages. A web application interacts with the user and back end data bases. Actually IBM or any other big Software Development shop would have a hard time with 9,000,000 users a day.
