But if a mother and father both lose their jobs due to layoffs as a result of a ty economy, then their unemployment runs out and they can't find another job and are almost out of money, they'd better spend $14 on an ID instead of some food for their kids. ing morons need to learn to prioritize. |

Well, that would all change when we vote to repeal unemployment benefits that keep people out of work because they don't have to look for a job! |

If you're going to give people unemployments benefits, then you mite as well hook them up with some ID cards, too.
FREE ID CARDS 2012! |

It's all about easing the burden on our job-creators. |

Is it just me or is there a subtle undercurrent of class-warfare in your tone?!? :mad: |

Let me rephrase; If you can't put away a dollar each week, until you've saved up enough for an ID card, then you don't really care enough about the fate of the election.
Btw, $13,5 was just for Pennsylvania as it was the state in question. The number was clickable, but I guess the brrrilliant Orangest0 didn't get that.
Many states have far lower fees, and some even have reduced fees for low income residents, as low as a couple of bucks.
And I'm sheltered and live in a welfare state? you.
I am unable to work because of pains etc. related to EDS3, and I am currently in a battle with NAV, the morons who are supposed to shower us with money, you know.
I can't sit for more than an hour before my back starts spasming, and I have to lay down for most of the time.
Yet they claim I should be working. I have no ing income. And just because we have larger salaries than americans, that doesn't mean we neccesarily have more money to spend.
A ing bread is 3-4 USD in the stores. minimum. you cant really buy anything for less than the equivalent of 2 USD here, except gum or if you're lucky a tiny packet of nasty cheap-ass ham thats near the expiration date to put on your bread.
this actually makes me poorer than an american with no income, so you, yet i would have no problem raising the GDP whatever equivalent of 14 usd in 4,5 months.
20 bottles a week gives you a buck a week. 10 in some states. repeat until you have enough. it doesn't have to be that hard ffs plus you'd be doing something good for the environment. |

It has come to my attention that I am somewhat dense - thanks go to Lews for pointing that out, it was very much appreciated - so pardon me for asking, but how exactly is this bill making it harder for democrats to vote? Are democrats not allowed to carry identification or is there some big piece of the picture I'm not seeing? |
I knew you were trolling, I was just having fun yelling and swearing.
I've read enough of your posts here to know you're not completely retarded :p |

The point is that citizens shouldn't have to be required to pay to vote. |

And yeah, this is basically the point.
If they make it a requisite to have a photo I.D. to vote, there should be free I.D.s and easy ways to get them so that everybody will be able to acquire them. Though this will end up costing the government more money, so they shouldn't do that. |
