The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" 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.

I can support that. So let's assign some folks (or hire them) to help process free IDs for every citizen. This would included tracking down birth records, tax records, or anything else that can help establish the person is a citizen with all the rights thereof.

Once everyone has an ID, then absolutely enforce an ID check.


I have no problem with this, but it never ends there. Auto registration on getting your Driver's License. Giving poor people assistance and defraying costs is a good idea. Allowing more things to be handled on line. Setting up biweeekly clinics.

But in reality, the GOP knows they are better off with less people voting. I think three states have been told to redraw their districts. We shouldn't have to waste time on this.
