Making the poorest citizens spend money they don't have to cast their vote is anti-American, and because minorities have a much higher rate of poverty, it affects minorities to a much higher level, which makes it a racist policy. ANY policy that negatively affects a minority to a larger extent IS racist. That is what the right refuses to admit. They will say that 'it applies to white people too, so it isn't racist' which just proves their ignorance.</p></blockquote><p></p>
