Chips and Tracks Don P 3/10/08 WAC NEWS VA     It seems that due to the states opposition, instead of the REAL ID we are getting the REAL SOCIAL SECURITY CARD.

Or worse, both. Courtesy of Rep. Mark Kirk (R. IL.) your new social security card will include all of the bells and whistles of REAL ID. Dont worry though, you don't have to have one until your 16. Never mind the fact that social security cards aren't supposed to be used for identification, period. Lets just make them national ID cards with bio-metric data and RFID chips. Watch the video below to hear Rep. Kirk respond to questioning.

To quote a good friend of mine, " A chip is a chip is a chip."
