I just read the article, and as an EU citizen, I very confused when looking at the sample ID…
Why, oh why, would you ever need to put your adress on the card?
That is stored in the national database of citizens, surely?
What happens when you move?
And whoever thought that weight needs to be printed on the card is just delusional that it serves ANY kind of actual scurity purpose.
It changes constantly, there is zero use for it!
I tried to renew a driver’s license that I lost once, and they asked me to verify my weight. That was 10 years prior when I was a teenager.
I guessed wrong and they wouldn’t let me renew.
It gets worse… Here in Oregon, if you moved, they would just print and ship you a sticker with the corrected address.
Now, they don’t even do that. They update the address in the computer system, but the drivers license will continue to have the old address.
So there is zero actual need for the address?
It’s used as address verification for employers, but you just tell them “Oh, that’s old, my new address is…”
So yeah, zero point to it.
Might stem from sorts of verification like writing checks.
Or just bypass the stupidity and get a passport/passport card instead.
Passports are functionally different too because with realid I believe you can only travel inside the country, with passport you can fly outside.
The passport card is a passport for domestic air travel. You can use it to drive to canada but nothing else.
Is that an actual option?
Yes, and somehow those who are against RealID are okay with using a passport.
What will SovCits do now?!
