FREEP this poll:
NATIONAL ID CARD - Should the federal government require us all
to carry electronic identification?
Let's just make the National ID card voluntary at first (except for advocates of national ID, we'd force them to get one). There should be no benefits whatsoever for carrying one. Of course, it should be required for them to disclose they are carrying a card every time they want to purchase something at a store, and every time they walk past a policeman on the street.
Make it a felony to not disclose the card... Then we'll see how long their fondness for these cards lasts.
