Should ID's be free and easy to get, because if not, this would amount to a poll tax, which has been deemed unconstitutional.
We are also not required to have or carry ID to carry out any of our constitutionally protected rights.
We would need to set up a service where a representative from the government would come to your house on demand, verify your identity, and issue you a free ID whether you live in downtown DC, rural New Mexico, or somewhere in Puerto Rico. Otherwise this is a non-starter.

- platevoltage 1y agoAh yes, one of the only parts of the constitution that feature the word "regulated".
- Ancapistani 1y agoI'm not here to have that debate. I'm using it as a counter-example. You said ID was not required to carry out any other Constitutionally-protected rights. That is simply untrue, as illustrated by my example.
