The "SYSTEM"

Yep, another rant from your friendly Pixie member.

I've been sitting on this since the first of the month and it has not dimensioned in irritation so it's time I share it with my Pixie family.

When my granddaughter turned into a 'legal' adult under the laws of my government, I, for a number of reason/lessons, attempt to give them a passport as their birthday present. The 'hoped' implications of this I'll discuss in another thread, but our 'SYSTEM' is the point of major PISS-OFF now.

After acquiring the proper legal forms and having her parents fill in and supply the supporting documentation, I scheduled a lunch with her and went to the prearranged setting for the needed passport photos. After a polite lunch and kibitz about her new status in the worlds view, we went to the US post office (the 'official application accepting agent') to apply for a US passport from the US Department of State for a US citizen. The only issue was they would NOT accept US currency for the processing fees. That's right! The US government, working through all and only it's US government departments WILL… NOT… ACCEPT… US MONEY… for exclusive US government business.

They will take personal checks processed through any commercial bank. They will accept any commercial credit card. They will accept money orders from any commercial issuing company or are even willing to 'SELL' you a postal money order of their own in exchange for US currency, but they will NOT accept US money unless it is processed through a profit making/charging organization that is suppose to be separate from my government.

Does this piss me off? You bet your fucking ass it DOES!!!!
