You mean that every American citizen is automatically issued a photocard ID free of charge after they reach a certain age?

Because that's how it works in most of Europe for example. Some countries mandate that you must carry it at all times in case the police requires you to identify yourself. You use this card to vote, and you can also travel freely within the EU with it (loads of people don't even own a passport for this reason).

Where in Europe is that? Not in Austria. Passports, driver's licenses and personal identity cards all cost money. For a long time my only ID card was my passport, so I used that to vote, but now I have a driver's license.
