DMV tax cut

published on February 19th, 2007 . by Jeff Wright

I agree that the car registration tax should be slashed, along with property taxes, sales taxes, phone and utilities taxes, etc.  Our legislators need to get out of the mentality of trying to provide aid and comfort, housing, transportation, food and health care to all of the Silver State’s residents.  We used to call that communism.  Now it’s called bi-partisanship.

Another thing to watch out for is the REAL ID act and its requirements to the states to change the driver’s license to a national standard.  In an ironic twist, the DMV stated that such changes would cause lines at their offices to wind out the door and down the street, causing waits of 8-10 hours.  That’s not far off from what we have now.  It’s time to privatize many of the DMV’s functions and operations, thereby improving access and service levels while lowering the cost.  Why are legislators so slow to grasp this concept?
