Given you need proof of residence, proof of registration and insurance, and a valid driver’s license (and valid itn or SSN) to do it, the article writer is either entirely making that part up, or the far right is correct in the absolute ridiculously improbably widespread unreported, unnoticed identity theft required for that to work.
No, that’s my personal experience and prediction knowing how shit corporations are. Yeah, in an idealized world we’d all be w2 workers, but there also wouldn’t be homeless and there’s be easy to enter programs to make money if you are.
But until those programs are in place you’re risking the jobs of tens of thousands of people without other options. For no reason.
