Subject: Privilege to communicate
Once the government requires individuals to obtain a license or
ID card to engage in an activity, the government can also decide
not to issue the license or ID card thereby prohibiting a person
from engaging in that activity.
The FCC decided not to automatically renew Kevin Mitnick's ham
radio license.

If the US decides to issue a National ID card required to travel
on planes, trains and automobiles; any guess if it will be a "right"
or a "privilege?"
