Does “self-funded” mean people will be paying twice for transactions conducted online?
If we look at the options for obtaining state services all have some kind of cost. A trip to a state office to do business with the state in person will cost you whatever travel time is required to reach the office plus the cost of transportation to reach the office. Not all online transactions will require a fee. Those that do will carry a fee that will probably be comparable to a gallon or two of gas. Again, most fees of this sort will be generated by businesses that will receive value added service that is not currently available online or off.
