Joan Z. Shore: They're Driving Us Crazy (or, A Couple More Reasons Why I Love France) - Politics on The Huffington Post
There are plenty of reasons to object to Voter ID cards. Besides the basic question of constitutionality, there is the huge expense of setting up such a system in every state, and there are real difficulties and hurdles (and expense) for everyone trying to obtain the necessary proof' of citizenship -- even for something as seemingly straighforward as a birth certificate.
And there are even more reasons to object to the plan for new ID driving licenses. The scheme would automatically exclude young people who cannot yet drive; elderly and infirm people who can no longer drive; and people who simply have no need to drive, or don't want to. Will they be forced to pass a driving test anyway? Or simply be denied a valid ID?
