re: List of things black people can’t do because they lack ID’s.

Not sure how any of that is relevant to this topic (Voter ID), but it seems fair to suggest that LBJ’s Great Society is largely responsible. The data seems to indicate that the economic fortunes of Blacks had been steadily on the rise for many decades before LBJ bolluxed it up for them.

I’d say it’s relevant to your earlier point about marginalized blacks’ having less opportunity to procure ID. The causes of black poverty, regardless of their merit, are not absolution from the individual’s responsibility to provide some form of photo identification to cast a ballot. In a lot of places you have to have photo ID to pick your kids up from school, what are we even talking about here?
