But.....but.....then Mexico, dead people, and rabid multi voting liberals wouldn't be able to decide our elections for us. Oh no! What now? What now?
I would have been against a voter government ID in the past, but the moral and ethical past is gone. The inmates have taken over the asylum, and it's time to get serious about legal and singular voting. I see no alternative. It's the only way to guarantee a fair election.
There will be ID card fraud, so the government would have to account for that and make the cards as unreproducible as possible - like currency.
There should be some sort of centralized database, with every voter registered in it. Would prevent people from having active registrations in a location they no longer live in (easily used by fraudulent voters), in addition to an active registration in their new location. Would be much esier to remove dead people and felons. Credit card companies manage this on a global level -- instant verification that the card number in question is attached to an active account, as well as very quick detection of improbable or impossible card use patterns (like making on-site purchases in Florida and New York a couple of hours apart).
