But they won’t need them to vote.
This is suppose to make sense.
Well, I guess it does make sense if you're trying to destroy America from within.
It may be just a coincidence, but "destroy America from within" was exactly the mission statement of the Weather Underground, 40 years ago.
So if a panhandler can get a photo id ... hey, Wisconsin judge, are you listening? are you sentient?
I have infinitely more respect for panhandlers who solicit voluntary contributions than for those who sit back and have the government take from others for them.
I truly wonder if you have to be completely stupid to be a politician. Assume a man has a criminal record. He can’t get a job. So he has to panhandle. But he can’t without a license. And he can’t get a license because he has a criminal record.
I don’t like panhandlers. Especially those I know are frauds. Such as some guy with a sign that says “Disable Vet, please help.” If he’s a disable vet he’s getting a check every month and free healthcare. But it’s still stupid to require a license to be able to beg on the streets.
Step 2: “Attention, all licensed panhandlers. We have noticed that a lot of you are not filing state income tax returns. Therefore, we are now requiring that in order to retain you license, you must file a quarterly form indicating the number of hours spend panhandling, and the amount taken in.
Not only does nearby(ish) Durham require panhandle to wear photo ID tags, they require them to wear orange high-vis vests like construction workers, if they’re bumming in an intersection or roadside. Gotta love liberals.
