My view has always been a difference between ID cards and entitlement "devices" that can serve as ID. Driving license is entitlement to drive and with a photo can be used to show identity. A passport is a border movement document (visa also required sometimes) that can also show identity.
I have no problem with entitlement cards but I do with ID cards. I certainly would have issues with a single card then replacing all the others. Everyone gets an ID and you add on entitlements or remove them as needed. Now put that power in to a future, totalitarian regime let alone an incompetent one. At a touch of a dictators whim your right to work is removed.
