148. Read the fine print
The requirement that voters provide ID was the title given to Prop 200 to distract attention away from what the initiative's authors really wanted to achieve, which was the bit about how anyone who fails to report a person even suspected of being an illegal alien will face a five year prison term. Under Prop 200's fine print, a firefighter who puts out a fire at an undocumented alien's house, a librarian who checks out a book to an undocumented alien, a medical worker who provides emergency medical care to an undocumented alien, all are considered criminals who should be locked up. That's the real problem with Prop 200.
