When I lived in NY I felt the same way about the DMV. Here in Canyon County Idaho there are a good 10-15 agents and I've never waited more than a few minutes. Guess we take all the savings from our poor education system and put them into the DMV!

ehhhh... Simplot (major potato producer/processor). Then there is the Amalgamated Sugar Factory (turns sugar beets into sugar). Outside of that, plenty of service level work. More tech in neighboring Ada county with Micron, HP and a lot of other startups etc.
