Federal ID plan IS CRAZY
‘The act, signed in 2005 as part of an emergency military spending and tsunami relief bill . . .”
This clearly shows that they had to sneak it through. I bet most of those voting for the bill never even knew it was there (because they didn’t read it).
The Act does virtually nothing to stop terrorism. As one example—you’ll be required to show the Federal ID to enter a federal building. How is that going to stop someone from blowing their truck up outside the front door? As a second example—you’ll be required to show the Federal ID to open a bank account. Do you really think that Osama Bin Laden and Al Qaeda bank at your local bank? Or is it more likely that they funnel money through various channels? As a third example—you will be required to show the Federal ID to board a plane. We’ve got Air Marshals, steel cockpit doors, and baggage screenings galore. It’s safer to fly than be outside in a thunderstorm.
The REAL secret of REAL ID is the REAL loss of liberty.
Repeal The REAL ID Act. Kudos to those states that have already done so.
