Photo ID everywhere but at the polls?

Recently, Hillary Clinton claimed the GOP, by demanding that voters have photo IDs, was trying to stop some people from voting.

One group that was mentioned were old people. I am in that group, and that is a lie. Medicare requires a photo ID when you are admitted for treatment. And I believe it is required by all insurance companies in order to stop fraud in the medical field.

A photo ID is required to open a bank account, to rent a car and to board a plane at the airport. Some places require it when using a credit card. Also schools and park districts are requiring photo ID.

With the increase in fraud of all kinds, I am sure there will be more requirements for photo IDs.
