Re: Voter Registration Overkill
You know what's interesting about this move, besides the implicated poll tax unless the federal gov't foots the bill? Historically, the first, reliable red flag for the development of a genuinely fascist (caste-based) gov't structure is: show me your papers. Put less humorously: When an individual citizen can no longer engage in their civil rights without their citizenship brought into contention by figures of authority.
