Already Victim to a Capitalist Society
This morning I awoke and decided to make “another” grand attempt at getting my Michigan State Identification Card.
What do I mean by attempt??
Well, Apparently a Social Security card, Birth Certificate, High School Picture ID card, High School Transcript, High School equivalency certificate, Immunization Record, is not enough to prove to the Govt. that I am a resident of Michigan, and that I am planning to stay in Michigan.
Heres the kicker, The lady that I had talked to today, and the lady before that and the ladies prior to that since I was 17 years old, have all denied me my Identification card due to lack of Proof of residence, and the fact that my house just burned a few weeks back and took all the existing bills, and random paperwork and reduced it to ash does not help this time around.
Here is the list of things I am missing that I need to prove my Michigan Residency.
- Utility Bill or credit card bill issued within the last 90 days (electronic copies are acceptable)
I do not have any bills because I do not live in my own house and I was living with my parents until my house burned.
How am I supposed to get “bills” if I don’t have an ID to sign up for any Utilities or buy a car.
- Account Statement from a bank or other financial institution issued within the last 90 days showing that recent transactions have taken place in Michigan.
All banks in Michigan Require that you have an Drivers license / Michigan ID to even get an account. What the hell? is this a nightmare?
No its reality.
Michigan High school, college or university report cards or transcripts less than two years old.
This is ok, I have one of these Transcripts from their school systems. There is a problem with it though, first of all I called them in 04′ to get them to send me my transcript, it took them till early 08′ to get it to me. At the bottom of the transcript it says “transcript is unofficial unless signed by a school official” and it was neglected to be signed. The final flaw in my transcript is that it says that I entered the school in 02/13/04 when that is complete bull because I had gotten kicked from the previous school for getting into a fight on valentines day, which would be 02/14/04. Now do you see their dirty work?
(notice that the transcript is over 2 years old)
Someone wanted brownie points on count day.
-Mortgage, lease or rental agreement.
Umm, again how the hell can I rent or lease a place if I cant supply a damn form of Michigan Identification.
-Pay stub or earnings statement issued with the name and address of employer.
I’ve been job hunting for years straight, and still cannot get a job because I Do do not have a Michigan State Identification card.
-life, health, (auto or home insurance policy).
Again. think about it.
-Federal, state or local Govornment Documents, such as receipts, licenses or assessments.
-Mighican title and registration.
Any ideas or questions or theories or anything?

NORML – Marijuana law reform.

Personally I have met a ton of Marijuana users who are NOT lazy, that are actually very intelligent, and do some pretty interesting work.
There are millions upon millions of Marijuana users in the world. Some users are bad humans, and some of them are good humans, its not the Marijuana that turns someone into a bad person, or a good person, if you are born a bad/good person, smoking marijuana will not effect how Bad or good you are.
Sure, they tell us that it causes disease and it destroys brain cells :X
But last time I walked into the local store I could clearly see a wide array of Alcohol on the shelf. Hmm doesn’t Alcohol cause Disease? Deaths? Accidents? Addiction? and Destroy Brain cells?
Why is our govt. keeping Marijuana illegal?
They use the media every day to tell us that “Jhonny” smokes “Marijuana”.
They tell us “Jhonny” does not get off of the couch very much because he is stoned.
Have you ever tried getting off of the couch while drunk?
Trust me its a way different experience.
And I don’t understand the concept of “a lazy stoner”
Because every pothead I have ever known was more intrigued by everything around him (including work) when they were high, because the buzz makes them feel comfortable with having to deal with the stress from work, and everyday Society in such a Capitalist world.
Do you think we “all” like to have to wake up and worry about why we are losing our house because we cannot afford the taxes this year or we owe a bunch of money because a man in a sharp gray suit with a tie gave us a piece of plastic and said “use this to buy things on Credit, then pay me back with Interest”.
A happy soul ends up victim to society because of the Brainwashing advertisements telling us that we “need” Material items.
Look at smaller societies people.
Tell me why the small tribes left in the world are not living in apartment 37 on floor 16 of the giant building on main street New York.
Because you do not “need” all of the things you see on television, in advertisements all over the place to survive in this world.
The tribes left in the world are only concerned with which way the animals of their homeland are migrating so that they can have food for their people.
Sure they don’t have all the so called “convenient” material items that we have in America, but they do not need them to survive either.
So who gives a damn if a few million people smoke a little Pot.
if a serial killer is smoking pot, then sure he should go to jail. because he was a bad person to begin with.
Now some pot smokers wake up and clean their house, send their loving children off to school , feed the dog, and many other things because they know whats right from whats wrong.
Smoking marijuana does not effect your ability to decide right from wrong.
And how many times on the news box do you hear of someone getting into a car accident and killing a bunch of kids because they were High on marijuana?
If you are a Bad person then you are always going to be a bad person whether you smoke marijuana or not.
And I have met a lot of “Good people” that have done a lot of “Bad things” because they were Drunk.
But never have I had a “Good” and “Outgoing friend” do anything bad just because they smoked a little pot.
do the math.
do some research.
please help to stop the Govt. from putting good people that smoke marijuana in their Prison / profit farms.
Check out the Norml Website and help The Amercian Marijuana users regain their freedom and their right to “Live” Happy.
