It just wouldn't feel right having to carry around ID all the time because the government wants to know where and who you are. Now I'm not usually somebody who proclaims the necessity for a smaller government, but such an ID card is going too far. I assume that if askedm you must present it. I'll be the first to admit that these points hardly address Ballzor's. I guess this is seen as the next step in the increasing surveilance (so to say) of the people by the state.
It really seems like a waste of money to me actually. What is the government really trying to achieve with such a card? It seems as way for the government to look like it's doing something for the people's security, when in fact such a scheme has no real effect security wise.
