Issuing free IDs would be the best and most economical way to go in the mid/long run - it would save untold billions and also insure the integrity of the ballot. What price can we put on the integrity of the ballot alone?
We need to make that the standard response- every time they say they are against voter id because the stupid people can’t get an ID, we just offer to personally drive and pay for anyone who has not been able to get an ID.
You need an ID for everything these days- show me a (legal) citizen who DOES NOT have an ID!
