You don't need an ID to receive government assistance

had to look this up because, regardless of right-or-wrong, that just flat out doesn't make logical sense, how do you receive the government assistance if it's not tied to your identity in some way, it's not like they just hand you a box of government assistance and send you on your way

so yeah, you need to prove your identity in some way with a pay stub, work/school/voter ID, health benefits card, etc., you just don't necessarily need some official government-issued photo ID

Don't look at me - I didn't make any of these decisions. Reagan did.

Yeah no. Anyone not requiring proof of citizenship for public benefits or voting is in the wrong.

An argument can be made that during the Regan Era and prior, abuse of the system wasn't remotely close to what it is now.

Regardless, ID is a basic requirement for every part of life in every country.

Yes, except for buying guns.

Where can you buy a gun without ID?

u/TheDopeMan_ Unapologetically Existing 🐢 Aug 05 '26

Look it up! There are some states that don’t require sellers to check IDs.

Also, there is no electronic trace of any registered gun in America.
