Ok so in a previous rant I was bitching about the social services system that I am now a part of... you can read it here if ya haven't already...
Well now I am paying into the child/spousal support program. The way the program works until they start to dock my check I send them a check. Then when they get the check they send the payment to my wife. Now that process takes over a week. So my wife calls them and says "Can he just give me a check directly? "..."No that is not how the process works, yes he can give you a check, but that will not be credited as a support payment. We must process the check, then we release the money to you." ... "But we really need the money now and he is willing to give us a check or cash and if I give him a receipt that I got the money and it was for the support isn't that good enough". ... "NO! He must mail the payment to our office and we will process it and then credit the payment and release the finds to you." ... "Why can't he just pay me and save the time and hassle, plus we really need the money now." ..."Because we must process the payment first and then release the funds to you...that is how the system works."
So I sent the check...and loaned her some money until she gets the money from me via the state agency that will cash the check and send her a payment.
THE SYSTEM IS FUCKED! The system is set up to keep the system set up. By paying her directly...that leaves 6 or 10 state employees out of the loop. And what if EVERYONE that has a civil relationship with their spouse wanted to do the same. MY GOD!!!! That would lead to the elimination of a few jobs and the system cannot have that. What is that line from Blazing Saddles... "We have to protect our phoney baloney jobs here, gentlemen!"... And that is what the bulk of the system...and really it is any governmental system is about.
So instead of letting people use common sense, and working things out among themselves if they can. They mandate a bureaucratic cock block every step of the way.
And this is just a social program that not everyone participates in. Imagine what the Ocare will be like when every person in the USA has to be involved. FUCKED...that will be the nice word for it...more like America will be OBAMAED.
