No, it's not. In a reality of limited resources, people taking advantage of services that weren't intended for them (and that they did not contribute to with taxes), and falsifying identities in order to defraud governments and individuals, there is every good reason to have an ID proving citizenship.
And let's be clear:
The U.S. government is still accountable to its people. The problem is, the people refuse to do their duty to hold them accountable. It's called
participating in government... which doesn't mean voting every 4 years for a President, and ignoring everything that happens in-between. The majority of the American public have abdicated their responsibility to be part of the American system, in their daily search for the Big Mac, and that is what has given us a dysfunctional government.
