CVS also has trouble with my name (I’m also a Christopher) as do some other private entities like my doctor’s office. So this may not be entirely a government thing.
- zdragnar 5y agoYou can go to a new doctor or pharmacy. The consequences for them not having your full first name recorded are between minimal and nonexistant. To be a US resident, you must be known to the government. To leave, the government will tax a percentage of your wealth. Try to tell the government to pound sand while remaining, and they can bring the full legal weight of their monopoly on force against you. The difference in scale of harm between what CVS is capable of versus the government means we should have no issue with holding government to a much higher standard, And be proactive in pointing out when it falls short.
