The argument is that those other things aren't fundamental rights, and voting is.
Therefore if you have to pay even a cent for an ID, then its a poll tax.
Of course, the goal posts shift when states make IDs free.
Then it becomes about getting to the place to get your ID and how inconvenient that is to minorities, and therefore racist.
They just don't want to admit that they do not want their voters to have to show ID.

ABSOLUTELY

I see you side of the argument, but as I stated I am in favor of Free IDs
Of course, the goal posts shift when states make IDs free.
I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH THIS 100%
Then it becomes about getting to the place to get your ID and how inconvenient that is to minorities, and therefore racist.
So you don't think people can get to ID places such as the DMV yet they can get to the grocery store, hospital, pharmacy, etc. It only would take one trip and I would have and ID where it lasted 10 years like a passport
They just don't want to admit that they do not want their voters to have to show ID.
Sad but true.

See this I can get behind. Make that shite free and easily attainable. Then if you don't vote it is because you are a lazy frick.
