Seriously, this reminds me of when Metra did an upgrade on their network that failed during the morning rush hour. What politically connected firm did they hire to do this? Is it the same firm that did the affordable care website? If this was done internally then it’s time to trash the IT department and outsource it.

Ridiculous. The one thing government does best – tax – our government can’t even do right.
