When they do get education or assistance they slide because in small communities people slide as there are still "christians" with old time values who believe in helping people.

When I owned properties on the southeast coast I often had workers working for me who had only an x or a pretty unreadable signature.

Older people, those likely to vote, fall into this voting mess.

Personally I think people who have no ID and want to vote should be sorted out with the help of their churches or local councils.

I am all for keeping non citizens out of the voting process but this matter should be fixed.

US is a messed up country. This whole thing is a dog and pony show to distract people from the real problems.
I think you're trying to be helpful but this is absolutely ridiculous. Even assuming you don't understand what "often" means the home birth rate in the US is .72% and most home births occur in THE NORTHWEST. Most of those are BY CHOICE with a licensed midwife.
