The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Literally nobody in the US doesn’t have some kind of photo ID. You cannot function as a citizen without SOMETHING and yet the goobs want to pretend that asking for it to vote is some kind of modern day poll tax.

According to a 2024 University of Maryland study by the Center for Democracy and Civic Engagement, almost 21 million voting age U.S. citizens do not have a current (non-expired) driver’s license. Another 28+ million have a non-expired license, but it does not have both their current address and current name (with address being the largest issue.

That represents almost 50 million voters who don’t have a photo ID that would qualify for them to vote.

Another roughly 15 million people indicate they do not have any license at all.

Qualified voter ID is a huge issue for a very large segment of the population.

Quite a large gap between your beliefs and reality.
