It's sad to see "American citizens" arguing in favor of preventing their fellow citizens from voting. Especially when "voter fraud by pretending to be someone you are not" is virtually non-existent in the USA.

I can see where it's difficult for people with enough disposable income that they have computers and internet connections and jobs and houses to think it's impossible for "real participatory in life citizens" to not already have a photo ID, birth certificate, SS card at their fingertips.

You simply cannot comprehend a life other than your own. We all do that, judge by our own experience.

And that's the entire point. Not every American citizen has your luck, or your life. That you simply can't comprehend such an existence in the United States for a good portion of your fellow citizens is telling about how lucky many Americans are. And how blind some Americans are to what actually exists in this country of riches.

Unbelievable.
