There are so many things that the government needs to improve on. The biggest ones are the everyday headaches that the general public are forced to interact with because that is the only way to do things. Here are some Examples:
- Insurance Information
- Taxes
- Unemployment
- Career Services
Why is it that when I need government assistance, it is almost impossible to get a straight answer, but when the government needs something from me, I better answer right away or I’ll be fined? I recently had to apply for CHIP assistance for my child and I was given at least 5 different phone numbers to call to get set up because no one could help me. However, I was still required to pay that bill in a week regardless of what is happening in my life. The same courtesy is not applied to every day Americans.
Unemployment is another one. I applied a month ago and have submitted dutifully every week, and have not seen a dime. I have paid into it when I was working these past 10 years, but I can’t get assistance when I need it?
It makes no sense why we have to do our own taxes when the government has that information already. If your number doesn’t match theirs, better watch out, but they won’t tell you that number: you’ll have to figure it out.
With everything going on, I’ll need to enroll in therapy from the stress and anxiety it is causing me. The irony is, I can’t get someone to help me with my medical insurance to actually pay for the damn sessions.
