Re: 2012 Presidential Election 5: Election Day Countdown
Exactly. Everyone already has the right to a free id, so we're arguing over the cost of something that people simply aren't taking advantage of? What if all these people decided to get one just for fun, or because you need one to rent a table at the local pool hall? All that money will need to be paid anyways.
Honest question: How many people that are of legal voting age do not have photo ID's? I don't think I've ever met one.
Any cost to supply the free ID's to the VERY few that don't have them was greatly exaggerated in those estimates. They sound more like numbers pulled out of thin air to use in scare tactic political ads.
