Most people never interact with the gov unless it's police or the DMV

A lot of people don't like female police officers (at least not doing patrol)

A lot of people have bad experiences at the DMV

I particularly remember in WI there was someone working at the DMV that was like 4'9", couldn't possibly guess their gender, and had only one hand. It made the entire process slower than it needed to be and they didn't have good people skills.

It doesn't give a great impression that our gov is being run well. 🤷
