My former doctor in an office with three others had to hire a full timer to deal with insurance. I quit him when he went MDVIP and wanted $1,600/yr up front. Paper work is generated by insurance companies and severely impacted by government regulations. Yah, everything the government touches they **** up. I had to renew my license plates at the DMV cash grab the other day. Took 1-1/2 hours of waiting in line just so they could take my $120 and give me a renewal sticker. Sheeeesh! |

Solution is less government. I seriously think half of all government workers are not needed. |

What kind of primitive state do you live in? I do that online. Granted, the last time I renewed my driver's license I had to go in to the office, probably because they wanted a new picture.

Cindy Hamilton NJ isn't primitive, but renewing a driver's license can be a pain in the ass. You have to do it in person, they take a new pic, and you have to prove who you are via a point system. An old driver's license is worth a couple points, but it's not enough to meet the metric. They take passports, SS card, utility bills, tax bills, etc which having varying point counts. And it's not just having enough points, you have to have a minimum from certain categories, eg you can't just us utility bills, tax bills, etc. So far, it's involved but not real bad right? The trouble starts when you have slightly different versions of your name on any of those, eg Robert G. Smith on your driver's license, but Robert George Smith on your passport. Then they tell you the passport is no good. I went through this when I used my social security card, which has Jr on the end of my name. It's there because my father had the same name, we lived at the same address when I was growing up, so we just did it as the only logical way to keep us separated, but it's not on my birth certificate. I have friends who have had similar problem. One is over 70, they rejected him because of the letter versus full name thing. Including one who has several middle names and the DMV crew spent half an hour arguing among themselves as to what should go on his new license. Whatever they put wasn't the whole thing, so good luck when it comes time to renew that. And people going through this BS are people like me who have lived in NJ for decades, had driver's licenses all that time, etc. |

Cindy Hamilton NJ isn't primitive, but renewing a driver's license can be a pain in the ass. You have to do it in person, they take a new pic, and you have to prove who you are via a point system. We only have to renew in person every other time (every 8 years). We can show our old driver's license to prove who we are. New Jersey is crazy. (My husband was born there.)
