I didn’t realize that Australias didn’t need to have driving licenses as an ID to drive their cars on public roads! :wink: :roll:

How about IDs to open bank accounts?

IDs to check in for a flight?

Passports to travel abroad?

The driver’s licence doesn’t have medical records, social security info, and virtually every bit of information there is.

You can use it as an ID and police are only really allowed to ask for ID if you are suspected of some crime. The Australia Card was going to change all that, giving the state and police more powers and also be a central data base for every bit of information.

It was hugely unpopular and the GOP equivalent here in Australia bitterly opposed it in Parliament citing all kinds of things like privacy and police powers as well as surveillance and much more. The Bill was introduced by the Democrat equivalent here in Australia but it was defeated and never got off the ground.

Today, we still don’t have an Australia Card. We do have a Driver’s Licence, passport, Medicare card etc. Police are not allowed to ask you to identify yourself unless there are some emergency responses to a crisis or you have committed a crim or you are stopped driving a vehicle.

To check in for a flight, you can show your DL, passport, employment card, ASIC etc etc. That’s just to prove your identity, not to punch into a central data base and have the individuals entire information at their disposal.

Business Insider
EXCLUSIVE: Dominion sends letters threatening defamation lawsuits to Sean Hannity, Maria Bartiromo, Lou Dobbs, and other pro-Trump media figures

Dominion Voting Systems has sent letters to Fox News, Newsmax, and One America News, warning of a defamation lawsuit.

The voting firm is at the center of a false right-wing conspiracy theory it manipulated the results of the 2020 presidential election.

The letters, dated December 22, warn the recipients to preserve documents and copies of correspondences related to Dominion.

Tom Clare, an attorney representing Dominion, told Insider it had "no choice" but to pursue legal action given how widely the false conspiracy theory about the company has spread.

He said the walk-backs from Fox News and Newsmax about Smartmatic, a rival voting technology company, weren't good enough. :arrow: :arrow: :arrow:

Any wonder why Putin “congratulated” Biden only recently of winning the election. :wink:

Business Insider
With less than a month left in office, Trump lashes out at 'totally incompetent' Supreme Court for refusing to overturn his election loss

President Donald Trump on Saturday lashed out at the US Supreme Court in his latest outburst stemming from his loss in the 2020 presidential election.

The president repeated his previous complaint that he lacks legal "standing:" the legal concept of whether a person has the right to bring a particular lawsuit.

Trump said he had "PROOF" of widespread fraud in the 2020 election, but did not provide any such evidence.

Trump and his campaign's legal team have so far lost all attempts made at reversing the election result.

Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories.

With less than one month until he leaves office, President Donald Trump on Saturday lashed out at the US Supreme Court over its refusal to intervene in the 2020 election, which Trump lost to President-elect Joe Biden.

"The U.S. Supreme Court has been totally incompetent and weak on the massive Election Fraud that took place in the 2020 Presidential Election," he said in a tweet just before 9 a.m. Saturday. "We have absolute PROOF, but they don't want to see it - No 'standing', they say. If we have corrupt elections, we have no country!"
