What are you talking about ?
What "freedom" are they taking away unless you talk about state governments having the say over their state documents.

You label me a communist because I dont see whats bad about making ID's cards as follows:
"Said cards must also feature specific security features intended to prevent tampering, counterfeiting, or duplication of the document for fraudulent purposes. These cards must also present data in a common, machine-readable format."

How is this taking any freedom away from me?

I got a NH drivers Lic with a MC endorsment on it. That costs 60 bucks each 4 or 5 years and is enough ID to suit me. If the fedral one also covers me and my guns in all 50 states and costs under 50 bucks I'll think about it, but it had best replace my drivers lic with the MC endorsement too. And it better get me into Canada on demand.

No problem. I was just trying to poke a little fun at the paranoid crowd found here on C-D.
