“What’s a common thread that runs through everything that government touches? Lines…and lots of waiting. Go to a DMV…you’re waiting. Go to a Post Office…you’re waiting. Social Security Office?…Dreadful wait. Ever have to go to court?…You’re better off settling. TSA?….Your wait is rewarded with a shot of radiation and a genital grab. Drive on a ‘public road’?…You get to wait at the unnecessary lights and stand in unnecessary traffic jams. Feel like renovating ‘your’ house? Wait for a ‘permit’. You’d think….YOU’D THINK..that maybe this doofus institution could get counting down without any problems or waiting. Well you’d be wrong.”
