Some States Say National ID Cards 'Make Life Easier'.
VE3OGG writes "Some places, like Maine, have outright rejected the idea
of a nationally mandated ID card amid privacy, legal and security
concerns. On the other side of the fence some states, such as
California and New Jersey, have said that they welcome the National ID card
and that it will make 'life easier'. One New Jersey official said 'All
you are getting in e-government for the most part are things that don't
require strong two-factor identification,' the official said referring
to security that requires something beyond a user name and password.
'But as we move forward and start to deliver more and more complicated
services, I think that people for the most part will want to know their
government has implemented strong measures [with National ID cards]'." [Slashdot: Your Rights Online]
