Republican lawmakers say requiring identification at the polls is a common-sense way to prevent voter fraud, but critics argue the move would open the door to discrimination.

Against those too stupid to bring their ID? Then they can run back home and get it. Oh, no ID at all? Gee, then you can't prove that's you on the voters' roll and you can't vote? Don't like it? Tough crap.

Who..

In this day and age doesn’t have an ID?

What can you possibly do productive without having some form of ID?

You could live on a cash basis, I understand. If that is the case you are not paying taxes. You can’t get a job without an ID of some sort, except on an all cash basis, and that means you are not paying taxes.

I feel like there is a huge hole in my theory, sort of a mind block, because of which I can’t possibly think of any reason a Voter should not have an ID.

I mean, for example:

If you have No ID:

*Where do you live? Buying a home and renting one requires ID usually.
*How do you earn income? Employers are required to get your ID.
*How did you play sports as a kid? Needed a birth certificate for that(Maybe this is why Obama sucks at sports)
*How did you attend school? Need ID for that, even if it is just a Birth Certificate.
*How did you used to cash your Tax refund?(ha ha I know)Check cashing requires ID, or I guess you could have signed it over to someone else for cash.
*Now, how do you get direct deposit for your tax refund? To open an account you need ID.
*You must walk everywhere you go, or take the bus, because you don’t have a driver’s license.

I know not all of the above applies to everyone without an ID, i.e. you don’t have driver’s license because you live in the city, But show me someone who has avoided all of the above needs for ID, that wants to vote.

Yes, I SAID IT!(Mark Levin reference)

Show me one person that will be “disenfranchised” due to the ID requirement and I will show you a:
TAX CHEAT
Drug Dealer
Prostitute
Illegal
or all of the above

Someone give me an example of a productive American that doesn’t have an ID.
