The State is at it again; Skimming the till

The state has this great idea to control the internet licensing renewals even though each county already handles it themselves. They just can’t figure out why the counties wouldn’t want them to help out;
Hillmer said she knows some county officials are worried, but those concerns are unfounded.
“We’re trying to provide consumers with a mechanism to do online renewals, and to do it efficiently,” she said.
“I guess I’m miffed that somebody would complain that we’re doing something of this nature,” she added.
Um. Well where do I begin? You F’ckd up the software to begin with. You blamed the counties for the F’ck up, you have been cashing in on the late fees and now you want to skim the till a little more. Miffed? I think the counties have a right to miffed.
Minnehaha County Treasurer Pam Nelson said she has one full-time staffer and a half-time person devoted to handling the county’s online renewals. She questions whether the state will have to add staff to handle the duties, which would cost taxpayers more money.
“In the end, it’s going to take money away from counties, and it’s going to cost people more money,” Nelson said. “That’s what I care about.”
And that’s what Pierre loves about it, making government bigger, more expensive and less effective.
