Well Osborn, we agree on something, imagine that hehe. It jsut boggles my mind that people demand accountability in voting, yet balk at something so, simple as identity verification. I would support a no cost Voter ID, or even a sliding scale ID cost. People making XX amount, say 35k a year and below get their cost free, 36k and above can pay a small fee. think about it, instead of another tax, jsut use the money paid for by the more affluent to pay for the other cards. It's a peice of paper, with a phote, some basic Identification information and a plastic coating. It could be done for a profit and not cost much.

I like the idea of a private company handiling that end of the issue as well. That would ensure they kept costs down.

Of course, everytime some brings up voter ID they are called a racist but hey, it's a good idea IMHO.


Einstein's "Theory of Relativity" is still being challenged to this day, but by consensus Global Warming is a fact... that's REAL science at work, why didn't Albert just go that route?
