What to do if there is a National Identity Card?

[gordianot]

I carry my drivers license, Social Security Card, Insurance cards, Credit cards, even ID for movie rentals. At work I have an ID card with me at all times. I do not mind back ground and security checks of any kind. In the 1960's and 70's I kept my draft card safe.

As a student of the 60's and 70's (during the worst of the Cold War) I remember the rhetoric how totalitarian Godless Communist required national identity cards and visas in their own country for travel. We did not have that in America even when there was a (real) threat nuclear war.

I have like everyone here put up with a lot the last four years. If Patriot Act II requires a National Identity Card, I for one will review my options. This is one issue I am close to agreement with a freeper acquaintance.
