I understand the critical need to keep the illegals out and if they are here to send them back or jail them and then send them back. But the purpose of a drivers license is to determine whether one is competent to drive a motor vehicle. If we are going to use it for any other purpose, such as to board a commercial airliner without a rectal exam, to buy beer, etc. we need to just admit that everyone over a certain age needs a national ID card, and quit playing the game that we don’t have to issue one. Of course, we all then have to be prepared to show it when asked...
If the feds would do their job and get the fence built maybe this wouldn’t be such a big issue anymore.

That's my main objection to the RealID act or a national ID. The feds sherked their border control/immigration responsibilities for YEARS, and now we have to pay with our liberty. None of this would have been necessary had our borders been secure all along.
