I am absolutely opposed to a national ID card. This is a total contradiction of what a free society is all about. The purpose of government is to protect the secrecy and the privacy of all individuals, not the secrecy of government. We don't need a national ID card. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
The instant formal government is abolished, society begins to act. A general association takes place, and common interest produces common security. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
