You know, people run the DMV, and people also run your local bank. The quality of work those people do is usually a result of how much they are paid, not a result of where they get their paycheck from. Here in NY, civil service employees are actually paid rather well, while bank tellers are paid crap. Perhaps in MD it is the other way around....I have no idea.
But I can assure you that if the top management at Citibank was let go and taken over by the Federal government, but other than that there were no huge policy changes, you would not notice a difference at your local Citibank branch.
And I'm just curious, but why did you choose to use the DMV as your model for comparison of how a government operation works. Why not the Fire Department? Or maybe the Post Office?
I guess that's kind of like when you guys use North Korea or some other poor country as your model for Socialism, but use the United States as your model for Capitalism (instead of Mexico or Nigeria). I guess it makes your argument better.
