There is no reason an adult living in the US has an issue getting an ID, if that's the issue to which you're referring. I read your two sentence post over and over...still don't get the connection you're making to my post with the changes made by Georgia's law. Care to elaborate? EDIT=to clarify-there should be no reason it's an issue to obtain an ID in any state because people have months and months to get one if not years prior to next national election. That argument just doesn't hold up.FB's quest to be the top social media platform with the most users wasn't enough it would seem.Excellent.
In a concurring opinion Monday, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas said social-media companies have too much power over public speech, suggesting they be treated as utilities so they can be regulated by the government.

I don't use Facebook, but when it first came out I was a member (I first said I was a user but that didn't quite sound right). Even though I don't like it and don't use it, a company (regardless of size) still has a right to make statements, including political ones. Corporate heads who choose to play politics (like Coca-Cola's actions), should always expect a negative reaction by the political opposition.
When freedom of speech is fairly protected, all speech outside of illegal hate speech is protected. These corporate heads take a small risk every time getting into the political circus to lose business, and rightfully so as voters have the right to boycott.
The US government is large enough and soon to be much larger with current federal efforts to add more layers of oversight. Government needs to let consumers decide the fate of businesses, products, and policy...that would be government policy.
The big Atlanta companies think voting is sacred and no US citizen should be excluded.. Obviously you think differently.
They have closed several DMZs in Atlanta... Its a very big deal to trek out to Alpharetta (now you have to make an appointment) Especially for seniors or people who don't have transportation. The GOP is simply trying to exclude voters. This isn't subtle.
