If you don't know your rights, you don't have any.I'm giving you an example of how bureaucrats aren't required to tell you about each and every possible avenue of action that is open to you.
If you can't be bothered to know your rights, then you get -or don't get in this case- what you deserve.
Buncha whiners.
It's interesting that the same people who know of every fuckin' dime coming to them through social services, would be unaware of a free id. bullshit, just something else for the babies in Wisconsin, and their liberal/socialist brethren to cry about because they got their asses handed to them.
So, your argument is that people don't deserve to vote if they don't know their rights. How patriotic of you. Too bad for you though, the Voting Rights Act disagrees with you.
Some people will not be aware of the free ID. It's not advertised. DMV employees are not allowed to mention the free ID unless they're asked. You may think that every person in WI should be able to figure it out on their own, but that's simply not the case. Inevitably, some people will walk away thinking that they can't legally vote. All because they didn't ask and the DMV is not allowed to tell them unless they ask.
If voting is such a big deal to you, then you shouldn't need to have your hand held every step of the way by the bureaucracy to get a ballot in front of your face.
