National ID Cards Mandated - If you're under 50

charleste writes: Get your tin-foil hat ready... according to CNN, the US Homeland Security Department has mandated "REAL ID" for drivers licenses. According to the article, this will not include a "chip", but a list of options by state. Despite legislation passed in various states and objections by groups such as ACLU, this appears to be a done deal. You won't be able to board a plane after 2014 if you're under 50 without one.
