Being a Bruce Springsteen fan, I think I will be known as "Born in the
USA".
That is if it isn't already taken by some high ranking celebrity!

Actually, if you are a business and making money, conducting business on
an instate level, some ID might be nice ...

If you are a financial consultant, for profit, an ID might be nice ...

But, if I read the first amendment correctly, and I am pretty sure I do:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to
assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."

The common person using the net for personal use, exercising their right
to free speech, or involved in a religious discussion, or involved in a
political discussion, or publishing a e-newspaper/blog/etc., etc. THAT
WOULD BE ILLEGAL IF APPLIED!

Now, I am not saying that the government won't attempt more
criminally-treasonous and un-Constitutional actions against American
citizens ... I am saying that they will need to be held accountable,
along with the list of crimes they have already committed ...
