"That's a reasonable position: The White House has never made an
unequivocal statement against the scheme, and it's possible that America
could edge toward a situation where the federal government devises an ID
and orders everyone to carry it at all times. Most European countries
already require just that."
Wouldn't this requirement violate the probable cause requirement for
seizures of a person which been defined by a series of cases, beginning
with Terry v. Ohio , 392 U.S. 1, 88 S.Ct. 1868, 20 L.Ed.2d 889 (1968)?
