Disproportionate actions create disproportionate outcomes. Stunning.

I got an ID when I was 14, so I could get my learner's permit to drive. In new york state.

And it's not even as bad as going to the dmv, you can get a state ID over the phone or internet in many states for FREE that just simply contains your legal name and address, so you can be cross-checked and verified as a real person. It doesn't have to specifically be a "driver's license". Just simply a way for the state to be able to verify you are who you claim to be. You do need a SSN, I admit. Tough stuff here.

More evades.

How are poor black people less able to get an ID than poor white people? Try to respond without a futurama meme.

Also why can't I vote in France's next election? Or can I?

Im thinking that mail in votes removes the van rental barrier so that's pretty consistant with making voting as accessible as possible... But if we go that way whale, what would be the limit to that to ensure that people in kazickstan (as an extreme example) aren't voting in our elections?

I hadn't even thought of that in terms of mail in, but that's another great point. I was thinking like, why can't I just get on a boat and go to europe and vote in france's next election?

Whale needs to justify his position here but he wants to watch football I guess!

But the answer is: I can't vote in france because I'm not a french citizen. And hopping a plane or boat or teleporter to france would not make me a french citizen.

Republicans: America is a trickle down economy
Democrat's: NO IT'S NOT! It's a service economy.

https://ballotpedia.org/Arguments_fo..._United_States

Arguments for:

Barriers to naturalization make prohibition on voting unjust
Prohibiting noncitizens from voting encourages discriminatory policy
Allowing noncitizens to vote doesn't discourage seeking citizenship
Allowing noncitizens to vote would benefit society as a whole

Arguments against:

People should accept duties of citizenship before voting
Prohibiting noncitizens from voting is not discriminatory
Allowing noncitizens to vote discourages seeking citizenship
Allowing noncitizens to vote wouldn't benefit society as a whole

Translation:

Makes it better!
Makes it better!
Makes it better!
Makes it better!

No it doesn't!
No it doesn't!
No it doesn't!
No it doesn't!

Based on the last two elections I can confidently say that America is going to elect the dumbest person possible so congratulations ooloo on your future appointment as head of state
