I returned to the country nearly 14 years ago, and now I’m working on going galt-growing, making, bartering as much stuff as I can-it is much nicer than being a scanned worker bee in a hivelike city. It is not for everyone, but it works for most of us here...
It’s unlikely you’ll be able to even pay property taxes w/o the ID. How will they ‘know’ it’s you paying them. How will you pay them at all if they eventually go to digital cash?
And forget a drivers license w/o biometric ID of some sort...or car tag.
