WTF difference does it make if it's State or Federal?
Get a grip. Like the State won't identify you to the Feds?

Besides that, it won't affect Texas, once we leave.

That's because we weren't really that interested. We had Indians after us, too, you know.

That's right, of 1836.

Considering the fact that the Court allowed Congress to bully its way into an area given to it by the Constitution by the 21st Amendment, I fail to see at what point the Court might call it coercion.

Subjective measures don't really cut it for me and only serves to bolster the point I made that the Feds have the club in the form of the Highway funds to force itself into other Constitutional State powers as laid out by snoopy.

My desire to keep my soul keeps me from applying to law school anyway.

The law is settled Sloww. If the Feds feel like intruding in a State matter they lack the ability to directly effect and in fact are prohibited from doing so by the US Constitution, they have the ability to squeeze the States in the pocketbook. As I said, only to a point.

If the feds slap on a 50% penalty, the Courts are going to strike it down in violation of Dole, no questions asked.

are you kidding? that orwellian name has done more to excite opposition to the thing than anything actually contained in it. euphemistic names just bring out the skeptical cynic in everybody. You're completely clueless if you think selling things based on a favorable name rather than apt description doesn't work.

What's so bad about a national ID card? Most other countries have them. What human rights does it violate?

Incidently, why would the I.D. cards be tamperproof? Not tamperproof, but much, much easier to detect when they have been tampered with, not unlike a passport.
