Sure, but this is not the case with state governments. My point may have been diluted by including the federal government.


I worked for a state university for several years, and while there were certainly those there to collect their paycheck, there were also many who - as the parent suggests - had a very earnest desire to do meaningful work.


True, and not something that can be changed through technology, but there are good digital services operating in quite a few states!


I'm part of one :)
