My conspecifics at work all love the National ID Card. They believe that it will (1) prevent identity theft (2) enhance immigration enforcement (3) thwart terrorists (4) make it easier to find criminals. After all, they have "nothing to hide"; therefore, it is inconceivable that the government would ever abuse the system. Having to show papers is a small price to pay for complete security, say they.
How the National ID will produce the perceived benefits is less clear.
Sigh.
