If you feel that people on welfare and unemployed are lazy and shouldn't vote, vote Republican...

I don't know if the OP's intent was for us to debate on voter ID laws specifically, but I disagree with most of them. I understand the premise of wanting ID laws, and if we had a logical way to do it that didn't fall on partisan beliefs, I would agree with having them. However, it's clear Republicans are using it to their advantage, and there simply is not enough evidence of "widespread" voter fraud that would justify these laws when so many could be disenfranchised from voting. If there was a way to get everyone ID in time before the election for free, I'd be for it.

The OP was about the subject header, on how the GOP's views are one where those on welfare and unemployed are lazy and they would rather they not vote.

Then on that point, it's pretty well known that the GOP views them as lazy, and those who are unemployed should quit drawing unemployment benefits and magically find a job. I wouldn't be surprised if they did try to take their voting rights away. After all, they've managed to go after the elderly and minorities already.

This was an interesting article I found on voter fraud.  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/13/gop-voter-id-data-voter_n_1773142.html
