You're watching the convergence of digital ID + internet access control + social media monitoring + CBDC rails, all running through one government-issued app and infrastructure. Permission-based life: you exist online, move money, and access services only as long as the state allows. This is Agenda 2030

The American right saw the Chinese model as a totalitarian dystopian warning.

The globalists saw it and said “that’s a great idea let’s implement it immediately”.

The LA Wallet is not even considered a valid ID at a Louisiana airport. Learned that the hard way when my wife accidentally left her wallet in a checked bag

Doesn't answer my question. And they all don't do what the are required to do to make sure the law is followed. Fed Govt does have more say on how federal elections are handled. And should to make sure all oblige that that only Citizens vote.

So you either fully understand it, and project it anyway....

...or you're that fricking stupid you don't understand it.

I'll let you decide which.

I mean if you are telling me that the government can supply me an app with a digital copy of my license, birth certificate, and social then sign me up. They already have this data and it’s harder than shot to get if you lose the flimsy paper copy you get for life. If the trade off is I get fair elections that only Americans vote in I’m so down.

I suppose the answer would vary according to state. The overwhelming majority of states require ID to vote. I don’t know what documentation is required to obtain an ID in states outside of Louisiana.

When Americans vote “for president,” we are really voting for electors*, right? Regular citizens don’t actually elect the president, procedurally. I don’t see how it’s any of the federal government’s business.

Edit for clarity: *electors in the electoral college

I bet you did the smart thing and took out a 96 month note on your car because the payments were lower. How little agency do you have over your life?

And when the government decides this is the only valid form of ID?

And when you're found by the government to have....not the correct way of thinking....and you're no longer allowed to vote? Or access your finances?

It's the govts responsibility because it's a federal election so effects the entire nation. There is citizenry requirement. It's like saying a state can allow a non American born citizen.

And the fact that "some states" check ids proves the need for a blanket requirement to make sure all elections have a core foundation.

If you are trying to make an actual point, make it. It seems like you’re just trying to be bitchy.

I guess you were implying that I’m willing to sacrifice privacy for feels and convenience? Specifically what are you referring to?

Your entire post history and every argument you make is predicated on your feelings. So you accusing others of this is projection in the extreme.

Do I need to spell it out in crayon for you next?

Then the fed gov’t would have the ability to regulate the electoral college’s election, not the general public’s elections for their electors.

You’re hijacking the thread to post bitchy ad hominems, which is actual evidence of you being emotionally unhinged.

I’m having a discussion about elections.
