Everyone should also get a procedurally-generated theme song.

Military, sure, but driver's licenses are state-level, not federal. Health care has been using birthdate like a password (one that is largely publicly available) for way too long now. At least financial institutions can use account numbers and financial history and code words, but even all that isn't great.
It's a messy patchwork, but I think at the time of the creation of the SSA, the US may have still thought of itself as a land of second chances. IBM numbering Holocaust victims probably didn't help the idea of a national ID, nor did the victim narrative of groups like the NRA.
I'm not sure if it's possible not to have a national ID anymore, so denial of it just forces a terribly kludgy implementation from whatever is around.
Americans explicitly didn't want a national ID.
JFC we JUST started! Give it time!
Gross. I haven't run into that.
USB-A requires three attempts to connect, C only one.
That's not at all the assertion you made.
What I haven't seen was any effective debunking that moved the needle.
Not what I've observed in the last 20 years for either side, but I guess we'll see.
They've put all their eggs in the Trump basket, with no clear line of succession. Once he is humiliated again this year, the fever will break for some, and the rest will splinter into infighting. This was their last clear path, which is why they are forcing through everything they are able while they can.
Beating them at their own dishonest game has worked much better than trying to fact check them, and getting completely outpaced, ever did.
Hmm, that's a good point. Washington finally relented, they were a hold-out for a long time.
