Maybe he got the total wrong for healthcare.gov but $634M should be enough to build and run every government website in the US for more than a decade.

That's a ridiculous statement. $63M a year to build, run, maintain and host unknown numbers of web sites (thousands!) and services that process trillions of dollars annually seems absurd.

The total budget for all government websites isn't important (for starters they aren't paid for out of one bucket), it's just important that individually each one is managed competently.

And you know the requirements for the next ten years of computing technology how?

You know that not all government websites are public facing, right?
