It is interesting to me that we don't have a national ID card in the USA. I don't appreciate strong arguments against them. Like on this list by the ACLU... https://www.aclu.org/other/5-problems-national-id-cards https://www.aclu.org/other/5-problems-national-id-cards >> Reason #2: An ID card system will lead to a slippery slope of surveillance and monitoring of citizens. I think "they" are already monitoring everything I do. Maybe this would have mattered more to me before I had a smartphone, passport, bank account, social media accounts, etc. If I wanted to live off the grid with no electricity & only using trained ninja squirrels to buy things with unmarked bills on my behalf, I would certainly not want to be forced to into having a national ID card. I'm not advocating monitoring. I just feel a national ID card wouldn't be much different than my current situation.
