State issued, and if necessary bank issued, but I even have issues with that.
NOT FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ISSUED.
This is a slippery slope. Its anti-liberty and Madison and Jefferson would have heart failure if they saw what we're doing to the republic they bequeathed to us.
As for identity theft? Well, this is what happens in a credit and plastic-happy society. If people lived within their means and used only cash instead of whipping out that Visa, they wouldn't have that problem, now....would they?
Economic ludditism at its finest.
States can issue at a minimum stadard. There your argument is removed so what is your problem with it now?
Do you disagree that states overstep their authority when they offer licensing to foreigners? I should hope you do!
MY ID theft was the result of a woman calling herself "juanita robertson" using MY SS# as the one given to an employer for working here illegally. That has ZERO to do with credit cards and plastic happy society. I was only about 12 years old when I found out about this. (IE my first paper route that required the use of my SS#) Care to try again?
