Thread Name: BS: I.D Cards, are they a stupid idea?
Subject: RE: BS: I.D Cards, are they a stupid idea?
Funny, I'm working at a Bank in New Jersey now, as a teller, and a Mexican worker came in to cash his check with a New Jersey Indentification card and I was instructed that we do not accept this card. He had no other Id. Makes me wonder how he got the NJ ID card in the first place. Maybe he had it at home. Point being, he had a New Jersey Indentification card. It had holograms and fancy-shmancy stuff all over it so it looks valid. I've never seen one before. Interesting.

I get a big brother feel from this discussion. Though it seems to be inobtrusive, it really is an important social change.

While most have some form of id already, it's not mandatory, is it?
I don't know. Scary to me.

Love, Annamill
