It has been argued on this site, in the media, even the Attorney General Eric Holder has claimed that Voter ID laws are discrimination because many minorities do not have ID's. And that acquiring an ID is an extraordinary burden on such individuals. So, when Obamacare goes into full effect and the government forces people to buy health insurance or pay a fine, just for breathing how is that not an extraordinary burden? Also when people are forced into contracts with insurance companies how to they prove who they say they are?

You'll need to PROVE you have healthcare but no proof required to vote, amongst a billion other things you need ID for.

As liberal as I am, I don't understand the opposition to presenting ID for voting. It prevents voter fraud. Everyone should have to carry some form of validated photo ID on them.
