A new law requiring anyone entering a national park or other US territory to show a national ID.

Why is this necessary? It seems like a control measure. The US government really wants everyone to have a passport (which now contain a little chip so they know where the passport is at all times, and that means where YOU are sometimes), but hasn't stepped up the processing department enough to make it timely.

Sometimes it feels like the government wants us to sit at home so they can keep better track of us. "Baaaaaa!" Easy there, sheeple.

I don't care who knows where I am. Just bring money
