Skeptical

Far be it from Darwin to defend someone without his or her asking, but…

Darwin too worked as a civil servant at both the federal and state levels. For the most part, civil servants are hard working, knowledgeable and receive little credit for what they do. Remember them when you call the police, your house catches fire, you need a road to drive on, you want water to come into and out of your house, your garbage picked up or all the things that the various political subdivisions do for us. We have often heard that the bureaucracy is not in the Constitution. True, as the Founding Fathers were designing a government, the bureaucracy was already in place and working.

To address the perceived problem of “Where is Everybody,” we need to know how many people work at the automobile license office who are authorized to hand out tags. If more than two, were the others at work that day? Was one of them on a labor law authorized 15-minute break? Civil servants too have normal body functions that require privacy.

And finally yet importantly, why didn’t you ask?
