If you’ve needed a new passport within the last few months, good luck.
Those whose essential travel document expired within the last two years of the COVID-19 pandemic are now facing a harsh new reality when it comes to getting a renewed passport. Long lines, camping overnight outside passport offices, desperation, tears, flared tempers and the occasional fist fight.
That is if they weren’t willing to pony up hundreds of dollars, at a rate of $25 to $50 per hour, to pay someone to wait in line at the passport office for them.
But they’ll all get pay raises and increased benefits at your expense. Our politicians and predatory civil service unions have created a new ruling class. They hate us.
