It’s pretty much a ritual of mine to be and stay hammered most of my travel day.
Chug most of a half pint of liquor in the parking garage, double of Johnnie Walker Black for pretty much every hour I’m in the airport, order some mini bottles (or carry on my own) on the plane, sleep until my destination, and then do whatever it is I’m doing that day.
But then, I handle my alcohol extremely well (and have the red hair gene that makes you less susceptible to its effect and process it more quickly). So I don’t really get in trouble.
This. I’m not actually opposed to the requirement for needing ID or proof of citizenship to vote. What I am opposed to is anything creating a barrier to voting that’s more substantial than an extremely mild inconvenience like registering.
Imo we need a national ID system anyway, so we can stop using SSN data for that purpose because it’s stupidly insecure. In the modern digital age it would be trivial to just assign a “user is licensed to drive x” flag in a digital database in your home state to your ID. Pair it with some kind of 2FA and switch government services to digital.
Easy, cheap to administer, make it free, and auto register people to vote when they turn 18. Have highschools participate in the ID issuing process, since that covers the vast majority of people.
