If you are writing a check for your groceries.
Grocery stores usually require a picture ID ...
Many places including restaurants and retail stores and dr's offices/hospitals make you show them to purchase alcohol ( regardless of age) and to use a credit card/insurance card ( thanks to identity theft ...an illegal alien favorite past time).
You also need a valid ID to fill out all legal forms ( such as POA,Will's etc) either that or two witnesses that can vouge for you in front of a notary. P.S both those witnesses have to have a valid ID.
But Libs cry when you are asked to use them to vote.
