Registered Voter

"....are we stupid or just naive that we continue to believe that money can buy us anything, even a slice of the American Dream." - Gil Scott-Heron

Which one? Stupid...or naive? The country is in turmoil because of greed. That's the American Dream; greed. Lust for more than you need. I understand it.

I sent in my voter registration a couple days ago. Can you believe that? Just waiting for my Voters Registration Card. Becoming a voter also places me in the juror pool. I can be called for jury duty. I want to be called for jury duty one day. I'd go in there and say some off the wall shit. They wouldn't want me to be a juror....especially on a Black case. All the evidence in the world could point to this brother as the murderer. 11 GUILTY......1 NOT GUILTY. Tyranny of the minority.

I still may not vote, but I'm thinking about it. I'm about %70 FOR voting %30 percent AGAINST. Obama and myself, we have our quarrels but I gotta support this man. Gotta do it. Don't see why not (besides my anti-establishment disposition). Well I'm informed enough to feel comfortable about my decision. Besides a few paranoid conspiracy theories and delusions (wanting to go into Afghanistan, being against Gay marriage), Obama is cool peoples. I keep going back and forth. I need to just make a decision.

My identity has been pilfered! Someone withdrew 300 bucks from my account without my knowledge. The mysterious thing about that is that I still had my card in my wallet. Wells Fargo (take your money elsewhere. Stay away from Wells Fuckers!!) tried to deny my fraud claim. I almost exploded on them. They weren't going to refund the deniro stolen from my account. I fucked up my hand and my wall because of them! Damn I was heated! They were trying to let someone steal from me! Wells Fuckers returned the money to my account with conditions. In 45 days if their investigation runs cold and they find no fraud (I don't see how they won't) they take the money back. They're going to take the funds back! I felt/feel like a criminal. They were basically trying to say that I could of given my card to someone else and had them withdraw that money. Actually they did say that. Which is possible I guess but not the case. Someone must have taken my card number and made a duplicate card. How did they get my pin though? Man this sucks! I don't see how this benefits me. I told them I still have my card. If I did to that why wouldn't I just say my card's stolen? Damn they're dumb!

"That will never happen to me." That's what I said about Identity Theft. It's one of those things. We all have those "that will never happen to me" thoughts. I guess they didn't assume my identity but you know what I'm saying, fraud. I never thought this would happen to me (although I shred all my mail). I should start burning that shit! That's what I get though, I trusted the system and it's looking like it's going to fail me once again.

I learned my lesson. I'm never sliding my card anywhere! I'll be paying with nothing but cash from now on. Cash is making a comeback. Fuck debit cards! Should have never gotten trapped with one of those things. If I pay with cash no one can possibly still my identity or I can't slide my card thinking I have the money in my account only to find out I was charged an overdraft fee or some other fee.When you're giving your card to the cashier or the bartender they have your life in their hands! They get that number off that card or just get your card and they can fuck your credit. No one is coming to bail your ass out either. Finacnical institutions got it good.

Maybe the person I vote for can fix that? Nah, probably not.
