It's pretty well-established (or - at worst - there's a pretty strong first-American-principles argument) why requiring an ID to vote is unconstitutional. Governments have been constantly trying to figure out ways around it, but the fact that they have to figure out ways around it has good reason. On the flip-side, IRS information is private & potentially security-threatening information. I don't know how I feel abou…

When you say "well-established," do you mean within your own mind? It seems like the public overwhelmingly (80%) thinks otherwise. https://www.monmouth.edu/polling-institute/reports/monmouthp...

Given that your first statement is an easily dismissible falsehood, how would we rate your level of understanding to even begin explaining that Payment for Rights isn't legal in the US?

I dont understand why requesting ID to check off a voter on an electoral roll is a bad thing. 1. Anyone should be able to register to vote, as long as they are eligible. 2. Eligibility should be straight forward (this seems to be where the issue is). 3. On election day you turn up, show a proof of ID so the roll gets checked off, go vote for President Kang.

This, the 14th amendment, doesn't give you the right to vote, this says you can't be denied voting based on race, color, or previous condition of servitude.

There is no right to vote in the U.S. constitution or Bill of Rights, because the "Fou…
