Must be a wingnut thing. I've never heard of this before.

You may not believe it, but there are plenty of government agencies that work just fine.

Uh huh. How about a few examples. Oh, you gave us some:

The DMV does work

Poster child for the worst "efficiency" in every state. EVERY state. Nationally recognize as THE example of government failure.


Not true. The DMV works fine here. Same in MN. It didn't work so well in LA.......but nothing works well in LA and that includes the private sector.

as does the postal service

Yeah. They managed to lose $3 Billion last year having, after price increase after increase, cutting service after service, and now actually wanting to give up daily delivery.


The postal service was profitable under Clinton. God knows what happened under Bush......as we have seen during his tenure, nothing worked well under Bush.

Got any more examples, genius?

Most things work very well here. Seattle is a city of over 700K people. They are changing my garbage service from Sunday to Tuesday. I have gotten two written notifications of the change and a weekend robocall. I'd say that's very good service.

Z is fast becoming the most ignorant liberal on this thread. As bad as teddyjack and michael. Just totally ignorant of the facts.

The smartest, most informed people on this thread are the non wingers........its indisputable!
