Identification needed?
How can it be that nobody has complained loudly about yet another edict from the federal government? The feds now require check-cashing stores to conduct a total and complete investigation, including photo ID, before cashing a check.
Ostensibly, this is to deter thieves from cashing IRS checks sent out in error. Obviously, check-cashing stores serve primarily poor people who usually have no bank accounts. Fine.
But where is the outrage by liberals who cry out that requiring a photo ID is prima facia discrimination when it is applied to being able to vote in this country?
