The Indian government has, over the years, awarded contracts worth billions of dollars to Infosys for projects like the Goods and Service Tax portal, Income Tax portal. In all these cases, the implementations are slow and super buggy. Deadlines to deliver are routinely missed. In an ideal world, these companies should not be allowed to exist.

Now, the interesting this is the recent complete refactor of the country’s income tax portal. It was messy, but I feel it was heavenly compared to the clusterF that was healthcare.gov. So what are your thoughts on this being a WITCH specific problem?

It was fixed because a govt minister threatened them with jail time in the end. That set them straight and they fixed the monstrosity to save their ass. Can't reveal more details.

That’s interesting to know, thanks lol. That’s the interesting part about corruption in india, in some screwed up way, it’s more “fair” than corruption in the US I think?

It is much better than before now. And it's also better than most govt websites.

You seem to be suffering from inferiority complex issues. Please fix your own thinking's buggy implementation before commenting about others.
