Bureaucracy
.
My driver's license is up for renewal. As an anti-terrorism, homeland security, let's-make-citizens-lives-more-complicated measure, I must bring my birth certificate to the DMV. I don't happen to have my birth certificate, it was lost during one of my many moves. I can get a copy at city hall for a mere $15. Guess what I have to bring to prove I'm me?

My driver's license.
So, if my driver's license is good enough to get my birth certificate, why do I need my birth certificate to get my license renewed? Ah, bureaucracy.

you have go tto be kidding me!! What a mess & it seems that the cost of birth certifs went up $10 in 10 years. I tell ya, they will get our hard earned cash one way or another, won't they??
Draw up some more certificates like proof of Awareness, Proof of Soul,and give them a blank Certificate of Anal Retentiveness to fill out
