A National ID Card

I think that the whole "opt-in" thing would go a long way to helping people accept it. Personally, from tw's assertions, I can see an opt-in National ID card as being a good thing. Now, how it is implemented will have a lot to do with whether or not it's widely accepted.

As far as people fearing it - there are those that fear free speech. Regardless, the latest polls I've seen still show people having pretty strong support for a strengthened national ID system. So, we'll see.
