Sure, but that wasn't the claim.

So what you're saying is the only means by which you could have a livelihood (if you can call it that) without identification is through illegal work or the good graces of friends, neighbors, and relatives.

You need a photo ID for...

legal employment
cashing a check
opening a back account
receiving social welfare benefits

Yeah. I'd say you're right.

And instead of focusing on why people don't have ID's and getting them this necessary instrument (maybe by supporting this voter ID law that subsidizes ID's), Democrats want to say wah! people don't have ID's so they're being disenfranchised.


My brain is struggling to comprehend the Democratic position and I just can't. On facebook, I get called racist.

If you get in an accident or get pulled over, it's a real pain in the ass if you don't have your license. It's just a bad idea to drive without it.

Two quick questions, firstly what photo ID is required for legal employment? Also, do photo ID's not have a validity dates on them? Things like opening bank accounts are things many people only do once. Many people wouldn't have opened a new account for decades and probably wouldn't have needed a photo ID back when they did.

You usually need your driver's license and social security number to fill out all the required forms. Some require you to fill out a proof of residency which requires a birth certificate or passport in addition to driver's license.

Stop saying driver's license. A non-drivers State ID is perfectly valid. You're spreading misinformation.

A state ID in PA is $13.50 and is surprisingly quick at the DMV to renew. They require no documentation to renew (assuming you have the expired ID). If you renew online, you simply walk in and they hand you the new ID or take a new picture within minutes, with no wait necessary.

The voter ID law in PA provides voter ID's for free.

The other day, Bill Maher said Black people don't have ID's (which he confused with drivers licenses) because they're poor and take the bus.

I wonder if Bill Maher was having slave-master fantasies when he was ****ing Superhead.

I don't think I have ever had a photo ID required for employment in the US.

Have you ever filled out an I-9? Some companies let you do this at home and thus you never present your ID, but the practice is totally illegal.

I don't think so.

If I did, it would have been long ago (and most periods of employment in the US were with universities which might have different rules...).

[SasV7ReJ]

I don't think I have ever had a photo ID required for employment in the US. Wow. Ok. Every job I've applied for here has required the I-9, etc.

[highattainlet]

Voter registration cards are valid for I-9s in place of photo ID. Go figure. You still need an ID to function in society, and anybody who doesn't have one should really do themselves a favor and go get one. If the state is handing them out free (which they must do for these laws to be legal), then that's even better.

[larentont]

Bill Maher is a misogynist, it should be unsurprising that he's racist, too.

Doesn't everyone in Europe pretty much need a passport, BlackCat?

I had no idea that Dance Dance Revolution had identity cards.
