Good to know since I have a valid passport, it is no big deal for me to carry it with me on a domestic flight.

I hope to do not have the feeling to go to a different country if another state requires a passport.

Here's a link to another part of a bigger picture:

Is it possible to get into Canada with no ID?

Next part of the plan might be to identify the chronic local "dead weight" -- petty criminals and ne'er-do-wells in each city, and keep them grounded -- sort of a national "**** list"

For openers, you don't .... as long as you don't fly, and the switch to the "wallet card" passport ought to make things easier, not to mention a 60% reduction in the fee, which you pay only once every ten years.

Sounds like a fair trade to me; especially of it increases the pressure on "traveling vagrants".

OMIGOD.

What do I think of it? What I think of it wouldn't pass the scrutiny of profanity censors for this site.

Reminds my of the movies I've seen of Nazi Germany.

I wish you were right about the riots, but clearly passengers will submit to pretty much anything. Chava here, for instance, thinks it's no big deal, regarding it only in terms of personal convenience.

Thanks for the post, BPt111 .

American society is fragmenting, and some of the ugliest consequences will fall upon those who, either through simple lack of intelligence / education or (more often, I suspect) poor life choices. are increasingly likely to be stuck with the roles and jobs nobody wants, but we all agree must be done.

Below is a link to a prime example:

What Should We Do About "Justin"?

As American dominance of the most sophisticated technology continues to erode, the situation will worsen, and we will confront more riffraff defecating in our streets and spreading disease; some sort of national vagrancy law seems inevitable, (and the sooner, the better)! Incorporating protection for the responsible majority in the form of less-expensive and easier-to-carry passports into the equation seems just common sense to me.

To me personally it is no big deal as I have always had a valid passport since I was child when my family moved overseas for several years due to my father's jobs. But I can understand that for others it would be an inconvenience and expense to get a valid passport.
