I still don't see how anyone is kept from getting a proper ID card.

In the same state, they need a SSN to get food stamps, that was issued to them!
I don't think the argument is that people can't get the proper ID it is the potential expense of getting that ID that is at question.

For many people having to spend $50-$100 (or in that range) to get an ID so they can vote isn't that big of a deal, but if you are on food stamp or welfare or medicaid or just very poor that can be a big chunk of money.
