Looooooooots of people don’t have ID.

In the civilized world, this is pretty endemic to your country and is actually a problem there as I understand.

Personally, where I live, I couldn’t even vote or reliably buy alcohol if I didn’t have some form of ID to prove my identity or age (okay, I haven’t been carded in years, but it COULD happen). This is OK because everyone is mandated to have ID anyway (and it’s not in any way difficult to get one), so requiring ID for voting, for an example, doesn’t discriminate against poor people like in the US.

That said, X still wouldn’t get my ID. I haven’t even given it to Google, despite them asking me for it so I could watch music videos with a lil bit of swearing or something (Funny thing being, my YouTube account is about old enough that in a year or 2 it can go buy beer here in the EU)
