Agreed. The reason we do not have a national ID system is that Germany does not have a national ID system. The reason Germany does not have a national ID system is that Germany under Hitler did have one. The Nazis made *very* effective use of it.

The default rebuttal is "that could not happen here, we're the greatest country on earth." This ignores that at the start of WWI, Germany was the greatest country on earth.
