I don't like national ID cards because of what they would probably turn into:\n\nAt first it would be great... until the corporations catch on - then they will want to attach your credit to it. \nSmall government will cease the opportunity to "weed out" the REAL citizens who's politics or race they don't like.\nHave you ever tried to get your birth certificate? \nI was born in Indiana but I am constantly having to come up with ingenious ways of "proving that I'm American".\n\nIt's just always bad to start categorizing and labeling people - how long then before we set up the concentration camps?

It is illegal.  Will they call the cops?  Most won't.  Especially, if you're like "forgot it at home, sorry."  Some places are anal about allowing you inside without checking your ID, but most don't care.  But I don't know about where you live but in my hometown, sometimes cops would be there to bust underagers.

They come to break our laws.  They support nothing in or about America!  What documentation do they use to get drivers license?  Forged or stolen!\nWhat documentation do the use to get their child into school?\nForged or stolen.  What documentation do they use to get a Social Security Card?  Forged or Stolen,  Does anyone that illegally enters another country come under that countries law?\n\nNo, only citizens and those legally in the country come under the law of the country?  The only international law that applies, throw them out, jail and some countries shot!

Well, I would think banks want your drivers license as a form of ID, but Im pretty sure if you asked a bank, you could use your passport as a form of ID

Not really, is there a need? Will it stop terrorism? If its to stop fraud - we already have a National Insurance card and number.

They have picture IDs, some of them and they can get SS cards no problem even if they are from another country. The government does not care when issuing a SS card what country the person is from.\nGo in with your foreign birth certificate and a drivers license and you get a SS card.\nThen you can open a bank account, get a car loan, get a job and live like a US citizen.\nIf they didn't give them SS cards, the problem would be solved!

I'm from Canada. I married my American husband because I love him, not for any card.\n\nYou're giving waves of "D E S P E R A T I O N". That's a big red flag for any woman with half a brain.

How can anyone think that having ID cards is a good idea.  Illegal or legal,  Has anything put forth by this administration actually worked? Saved us money? Where's the budget surplus now?  Illegal immigrants a probably the safesegment of the working poor in America right now.  We don't know who they are, they have no phone records.  No property and trackable income.  \n\nDo you think the National Guard will actually be effective in guarding our borders.   The only thing I know is a lot of nobid contracts are going to be given to build fences that wont ever be finished.  \n\nWhat a joke this administration has turned our free thinking?, capatalistic?, Country? into.   We are not any of those anymore!

The big question is\n\nWHY AREN'T THEY?\n\nWe, as legal citizens....must show proof.....why any exceptions!

Not at all, why would you oppose immigration from any country?

I work in retail.. Yes we card you.\nYou've gotta be 18, and have a valid form of picture id. Or we won't sell them to you.

Unfortunately, no. I think it is ridiculous. All they asked for what my birthday and address, which anyone who knows me or who has seen my driver's license would know. \n\nI think the Republicans were talking about making a new law about having to show ID when voting but I don't know what happened with it.

Do you also think that 18 is to young to vote, get married and buy ALCHOCOL in some states?  I see your point about the women, even though I'm female, I agree that woman should have to register just like you,  In fact I am not entirely opposed to all US citizens serving their country. I think the government probably does not consider your personal information to be personal because after all they did give you the SS # in the first place.  But I agree with you, the least they could do is enclose it in a envelope.  Even if you have been out of this country as long as you are a citizen you should have to register.  Also the US Postal Service is a branch of the government so they probably consider that your information is safe in government employee hands.  But if you feel this strongly about it, I suggest that you go to the post office and ask them how to file a complaint or bring this issue to the proper party.
