Some people are so precious about ID cards because of lack of privacy, but carry mobile phones
and use cash/credit cards, which can pinpoint your location easily. The privacy idiots.

But mobile phones and credit cards have a purpose other than pinpointing your location
Like talking to people and buying stuff.

When I can play solitaire on an ID card I might be interested in getting one.
