They’re not. This would primarily be a blow to PUBLIC education, which is what this kleptocracy hates. Private schools will work to snap up teachers, and several dozen people who own the private school networks will get a little bit richer. The knock on effect of “uneducated people are easier to lie to and manipulate” is just that - an unintended knock on.
The issue is what this takes. You need:
1 document proving you are who you say (this cannot be a state or federal ID. I used my birth certificate, which can be difficult and time consuming to acquire if you don’t have access to it.)
2 different documents from different sources proving you live where you say (this would need to be a bank statement or utility bill)
You must also provide a document proving your Social Security Number (this can be hard if you don’t have the card - getting a new one is similarly painful), AND if your legal name has changed from what’s on your birth certificate, you need to provide attestation of that (marriage or divorce paperwork, etc).
So you could potentially need up to 6 documents from 6 different sources, it’s still up to the DMV to accept them, and you don’t actually get the card for at least another 2-3 weeks at minimum. There’s also a fee - in my state it would cost me about $80 after taxes.
Also, most voting rights advocates will point to the 24th Amendment, (arguably rightly) claiming that requiring ID that you must pay the state to acquire constitutes a poll tax.
To explain: when black men got the right to vote after the 15th Amendment was passed, lots of states tried lots of ways to make sure they couldn’t. One thing that was legal was requiring a fee to be paid in order to vote - this had the knock-on effect of making sure poor white people, who often sympathized with and voted with black people, couldn’t vote either. These fees were known as poll taxes, ostensibly to pay the people running the poll and defray the state’s cost of administering the election. Normally this was a nominal amount, but if you were a sharecropper or subsistence farmer who was literally counting half-pennies to get by month to month, the quarter that the poll tax required was enormous. Many states kept these poll taxes in one form or another for decades, and they were declared unconstitutional in 1966 by the SCOTUS in Harper v Virginia Board.
If I wanted a Real ID like this executive order required, I would be paying about $80 on the low end, assuming I do not need to pay to acquire any of the several documents I need to prove I am who I am.
