I’ve been warning people for years that this was coming.

Now you also have to have a facial scan to get into the capitol building. You weren’t told that was the agenda of REAL ID, by the government, but it’s here. Biometrics for everyone. Get your papers and get ready for the police state. Eligibility and identity are not the same thing.
“The goal of the Real ID Act of 2005 was to make identification documents more reliable to help prevent terrorism and fraud. To get a Real ID, people would have to provide a certified copy of their birth certificate and their Social Security number.”
If only we had the same concerns about “fraud” and “identity theft” and “making sure people are who they say they are” and verifying “where you live” when it came to electing presidents.
If I can’t provide a birth certificate and have two or three social security numbers from other states, can I get a driver’s license?
Just what exactly is your new photo going to be compared to that is on file with the state? The 10-year old picture on the driver’s license you just handed them?
This is the beginning of the photo file.
