[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]11 percent of the U.S. population doesn't have valid ID, according to the ACLU. It's up to 25 percent for people of color.[/quote] This is the survey they refer to. They called 987 people, in 2006: https://www.brennancenter.org/sites/default/files/legacy/d/download_file_39242.pdf What has changed since then is banking rules got much stricter in terms of documentation needed to open an account, and TSA rules got stricter in terms of identification needed to fly. 88% of all Americans have taken an airplane flight in their lifetime, and 48% of Americans fly in a typical year: https://www.airlines.org/news/air-travel-more-accessible-in-2017-according-to-latest-air-travelers-in-america-report/ 5.4% of US households are unbanked: https://www.fdic.gov/analysis/household-survey/index.html So.. who are all these people without valid ID that are able to fly and do banking?[/quote]
