What do you think the time table will be? 2008? 2012? I'm not just talking National id cards, amnesty for illegal immigrants, the fall of the dollar and the birth of the amero, or the NAFTA Superhighway... When do you think all the pieces will finally fit together, revealing to the world the bigger picture(or the much larger puzzle piece to a much larger puzzle, depending on how you look at it)?
I think it may be delayed longer than planned for whatever reason. so I choose 2012. national ID cards have been delayed 2 years already, to 2009, as you may know. One of my teachers had the gall, to for some reason, to lie to the rest of the class and say "nah, I don't think you'll be seeing national ID cards in your life time." I don't know why she lied out right like that.
You don't actually expect educators to be informed, do you? Most likely your teacher had read nothing about it whatsoever, and just said what seemed like the truth.
