If voter fraud DIDN'T affect elections, the Democrats wouldn't be against very basic precautions against it. They are certainly not against a HUGE amount of regulations and checks of multiple types of ID on other issues. How much paperwork do you need to wade through to be able to be legally employed? At least a couple- I-9, W-4, etc. in addition to other forms that may be mandated for your specific occupation. For example, if you want to work in medicine, you need to complete a huge amount of paperwork and complete multiple examinations and tests:
- Paying the better part of a grand and taking the MCAT to gain admittance to med school. Required government ID: SSN no, driver's license, passport, or green card
- Submitting any and all college records to the med school in order to gain admittance to med school. (And Obummer won't even release his to the American people to be the most powerful person in the world.
)
- Background checks and fingerprinting to gain admittance to medical school. Requires government ID: Driver's license, birth certificate/passport, and SSN no or green card. You also need to be drug tested as well.
- Paying roughly $3000 and submitting complete notarized med school transcripts and SSN number to take the three USMLE exams required to gain an MD/DO degree. Required government ID: SSN no or green card, passport, and/or driver's license. They also fingerprint you for this as well.
- Form I-9 to establish legal employability for residency application. Requires government ID: SSN/FEIN number, green card or birth certificate/passport.
- Form W-4 to establish withholding for residency application. Requires government ID: SSN no. for you and anybody else in your household.
- Another background check for residency application. You also need to be fingerprinted and drug tested again for this.
- SSN number, notarized transcripts, a notarized copy of your diploma, and a notarized affidavit from your residency program to gain a resident medical license
- Taking the fourth USMLE exam which costs about $1000, notarized transcript, notarized residency records, and several hundred bucks to get a full license.
- Notarized records of your USMLE exams, residency records, and an affidavit from your residency program as well as a few grand to take your board certification exam.
- All of the same as above to get a DEA number, plus yet another background check. You can't prescribe anything without a DEA number.
- Proof of board certification, USMLE exams, background check, drug testing, DEA number, NPI number, more W-4s and I-9s, SSN no, birth certificate/passport to gain employment as a physician. Also much more of the same if you want to collect your 20 cents on the dollar for seeing a patient a year later after the visit if you want to participate in Medicare. Oh, and you need to log your continuing education and retake the board exam every few years to remain as a billable provider in Medicare.
- In addition, pretty much everything in a hospital is on permanent lockdown and you have to show/swipe your ID pretty much to move from room to room and to log onto any computer. And all of your work on a computer is absolutely required and everything is also audited by the government.
Now a doc who writes for your high blood pressure medication is really THAT much more dangerous and required that much more identification/verification than requiring any ID from a person electing a politician who can have you summarily executed? Seriously, people, showing an ID to vote is nothing. I had to swipe mine FIVE GODDAMN TIMES just to get into the hospital plus swipe the ID and enter an expiring every 30 days password just to get on the computer to do my work. The hospital had to switch to RFID pellets in the IDs because we were wearing out the "maximum sturdiness" mag strips every six months or so. I did have to admit the half a face picture on the front of my ID (the rest got sanded off from the mag stripe readers) did look sort of cool though, as well as people calling me by the last three letters of my last name because the rest wore off.
