No that is not what I said, and the comment was made in jest.

13% of the workforce is without jobs. How many more are a paycheck away from homelessness? You cannot apply for or renew a state ID without a permanent address. No church, no shelter, no former address is allowed. If you don't have the three forms of ID needed to procure a state ID, or you can't take the several hours off of work to sit in the DMV, you don't get to vote. Or if you can't spare the money.
And none of these people who get unemployment checks have a photo ID? Yea, right.
Look, I understand your point here, but it just doesn't carry any validity. People with WIC cards require photo ID to apply for welfare or TANIF. Anytime you apply for ANY government program you need ID. There is no reason to not require it to vote. I see it as a voter fraud measure which if you have been watching the last two election was going on under everyones nose. Dead people, convicts, people voting twice...

A state government, should not be allowed to (essentially) tax people for the right to vote in a national election.
That I agree with but you need it anyways so all people are doing is making excuses. It seems fishy to me.
