Another Stupid Government Trick

[Laurie S.]

My company just got a bill for $0.01 from the Arizona Department of Economic Security! It cost taxpayers way more than that to mail it to us. At least I can pay it online so we don't have to waste 44 cents. Idiots!

I just checked, it cost 51.5 cents to mail this stupid bill to us!

Woulda been cheaper to send it with a border crosser.

wow. Way to piss our money away. :soapboxrant

It gets better. I tried to pay online, but they assign the passwords and they change every quarter. So, you have to call their non-tollfree number for a password. We have long-distance included in our phone package, so I did it. When I told the guy what I needed and why, he just laughed and I could picture him shaking his head about it.

Got the password, entered all the info for paying it, and it wouldn't work. It says now I have to call a different number. Well, I've had enough bs for one day, but I'm on a mission. I'll be calling them on Monday about this.

I'd ship them a box via ups or something, with one cent, wrapped in bubble wrap, and a box full of styrofoam peanuts.
