Ah, I think I understand. That no matter if the "government" is doing it, the government almost always contracts it out to a private firm? I think yes that's the case and yet I do think there are some services that are more in-house to the government and less farmed out, but I'm not sure. For example, I think the unemployment departments at the state level are often government-run, but I could be wrong. Not sure how much the passport process is contracted out, but I would assume not too much but maybe it is.
