Now, in Texas you cannot purchase a State hunting license, unless you provide your Social Security card, and that was imposed upon the States by a FEDERAL statute, which is numbered interestingly enough, as:
Statute 42, USC 666. The reason they give for the requirement, according to the explanation on page 21 of the 2006-2007 Texas Parks and Wildlife Hunting regulations book, is due to "Child Support Collection Enforcement."
So in Texas now, you can neither purchase a driver's license, nor purchase a hunting license without producing a copy of your social security card, according to a Federal Statute. All for the sole stated purpose, of punishing someone other than yourself, if you are not a "Deadbeat Dad" who doesn't pay his child support.
I doubt someone who won't support his own kids, would worry much about being properly licensed to hunt but I guess we can never underestimate the ability of government to punish those who attempt to do the right thing.
And soon, we will all be required to have a Standardized Federal ID card, which can even require retinal scanning (under the Real ID Act) if you wish to board any airplane owned by a common carrier, or enter a Federal Building, or any Federal facility or to even collect the Social Security Benefits the SS number was intended to be SOLELY used for in the first place.
Seeing that Federal Courts are housed in Federal Buildings, if a guy like me (who for instance does not fly any longer, nor do I have any need to enter a Federal facility, and therefore have no intention of applying for a Federal ID card) were to be called to testify by subpoena, I would not be allowed to enter the building in order to comply with Federal law, so I could respond to a Federal Court subpoena.
I would then be in violation of a Federal Court Subpoena, even if I responded to it, since the Marshals who provide security for Federal Court buildings would not according to the law, allow a person into a Federal building, without a Federal ID card.
But I just love some of the stupid stuff passed by our past Congress. Perhaps that is one of the reasons many are being sent home.
I do not know if a Federal ID card will be required to purchase ammo or firearms yet, as I have not read the entire act. However, wouldn't that constitute a National Firearms Registration system? One of the allowable requirements to the States, is the information to be digitized.
Wonder if that constitutes a national registry? And furthermore, how does paying me back some of the money I've invested into the Federal Social Security Ponzi scheme based soleley upon the Social Security card they've used in order to confiscate my earnings, relate to a national security threat, if I don't have a Federal ID card?
Wonder why the social security number they've used for the past forty years to confiscate my earnings, won't be good enough to give back at least a portion of what I've paid in in taxes? How is the government sending a check to the same guy they've taken money from for over forty years based upon the exact information they have, now become a security issue? Why would I need (besides compliance with this stupid Act) a retina scan in order to give me back some of my money, but they didn't need a retina scan the previous day, to collect if from me?

Make no mistake - it's quite possible that as a society (on the state level), we make a policy decision that "deadbeat dads ain't gonna hunt & fish legally" - I'm all for that, actually. But it doesn't need to come from the stinkin' FEDERAL government, and doesn't need to involve a federal number (the SSN). 
That would explain a lot.
