We need national standard, whether issued by states, best maybe since they are set up for it. Capture enough info to ensure 100% positive ID, weed out and deport all illegal aliens. What's the big deal? Get it done. We are mostly there with Real ID anyway. Anyone with a passport, with Clear, or pre-check, already have done this.

Only people fighting such common sense ID are protecting illegals or are themselves fugitives.

[Az Joe]

You are a liar. People in this nation legally and not guilty of any crime oppose this for very legit reasons. Shut up and wise up bub.

GO Away, N00B!

FR is a moron-free zone...

Nope. Not everyone. ID is ok, but they don't need my biometrics. Every hear of the Hegelian dialect? I am not taking the mark of the beast.

Anyway it can be abused it will be. Terrible violation of the right to privacy.

"Capture enough info to ensure 100% positive ID, weed out and deport all illegal aliens."

That is how the plan works. Government imports MILLIONS of criminals so that regular citizens like you will demand less Freedom in order to eliminate the very same illegals.

Even FReepers are falling for this stuff. FReepers will stand in line to throw away the last vestiges of freedom.

[House Atreides]

I agree...it’s the only common sense way of solving our problems with illegal aliens. WTF does anybody fear this. You go into the military and your identity is associated with biometric identification.

[metmom]

What are you doing on FR?

Why aren’t you on DU where all the government control liberals are?

[JockoManning]

NOPE. We are protecting our freedoms. ... as long as we can. Evidently you are not a student of Bible prophecy.

[bubalooie]

Your ignorance is embarrassing.

[Buckeye McFrog]

What's the big deal?

The Federal Government is absolutely not to be trusted with this sort of power. The ongoing FBI memo-and-text scandal should convince you of that.

Follow the money. Some tech contractor stands to reap a MAJOR windfall if this goes through.

You go first!

How big a task is giving everyone on Earth a digital identity?

I have no idea how old you are, I say that because I know younger generations have been brainwashed- we do not need to have government ID for OUR citizens in order to deal with the issues of illegals. That is bogus and simply an excuse to force everyone to get a government ID, that is against what this country stands for.

If allowed it will end up being used for everything under the sun, not just the original intentions. When Social Security cards were issued they were not to be used for ID, look where that ended up. People who are saying “mark of the beast” are correct, it will end up being needed for food and other essentials. The government will literally know everything about you from birth to grave. What freedom does that allow?

I realize the government has been doing their best to go in that direction for years, but we should in no way assist them or make it easier for them.

I am saying all of this and I already have a government ID in my wallet, because of my husband’s and my career the government does know likely everything about us or everything they want to know. The difference is we chose this, in no way do I support it being forced on anyone, much less everyone.
