NGL on this one, but why someone doesn't have a passport is beyond me.
Given the shitshow in the country right now, EVERYONE that is old enough should have one.
It's the realest ID there is, AND it doesn't have the holders home address on it.
It's just a State Department issued document stating that one is an American National.
Because it's $165 per adult and $135 for a child under the age of 16. That's $600+ for a family of four, in an economy where monthly groceries cost ~$1000+ monthly for that same family.
Damn your government is ripping you off. I got mine for ~$20
Yeah dude, it's America. Ripping us off is essentially a televised sport, considering the existence of capan.
