Kinda funny, but my DMV visits have been extremely smooth. If you get there with everything they ask for (you did read the FAQ, didn't you?), there's no reason why you can't have a similar experience.
Now my experiences trying to get a doctors appointment otoh...

My DMV experience was long lines and waiting around for an employee to manually grade multiple choice tests. That was in CA. On the other hand things were a lot better, way more efficiently run in PA. Why can't California give me a similar experience as Pennsylvania?

I don't have a lot of trouble at the DMV; maybe we could use an example where I've consistently had terrible experiences, like UPS?
In this case the alternatives being the usual power networks of the socialist states: friends and relatives in government and administration. Who you know becomes more important than what you know. Who you do becomes more important than what you do. A small favor done once gets returned. Informal networks of favors, relations and power turn rapidly into an impenetrable mafia.
Imagine your DMV visits applied to life-and-death situations. And it's not only doctors. It's also access to latest medicine, newest medical devices, best hospital beds and sections and especially doctor attention.
