ID's cost money. If you don't drive a car (applicable to many in cities w/ public transit, and people in poverty in general), you might have no reason to spend the money to get one.

If Republicans really cared about having ID for all voters, they'd make state ID's / driver licenses free in their states.
But they don't, because "voter ID" is just a smokescreen for trying to keep poor people from being able to vote. Poll taxes are illegal, as the courts have established repeatedly.

In a hypothetical scenario where everyone has free and accessible ID's available, requiring ID would be fine. If you balk at those conditions, your mask is slipping.

Guess it only affects the ones that don't smoke or drink. Cause they sure as shit have them if they do those things.

As Said before I do think they should be free. Preferably to everyone but at a minimal to anyone receiving government assistance.
