Actually, you need an ID to get a job. You should also need it to government benefits. Bottom line is you need an ID for many of life's necessary activities. Why are they okay believing a large portion of the population can't get a job, can't get benefits, can't cash a check, can't get housing, etc? If the left believes that IDs are inaccessable for so many, the issue they should want fixed is ID accessablity, not voting. I wouldn't care that I can't vote if I couldn't even live.

Bingo. How can you live and contribute to society without and ID?

The point was kinda two fold though. One, if you can't afford something, get a job and contribute to society. Two, this is a ridiculous argument for not having an ID. Not only are IDs (legal ones) cheap, but if you really had to, you could probably get a job under the table or borrow a few bucks to get an ID. The fact of the matter is, if you really wanted to contribute to society and practice your constitutional right to vote, then you would get an ID. But those who don't want an ID are not contributing to society and really only want to vote to the guy who is going to give them a welfare check.
