This is completely separate from voting issues, but I tend to avoid settings where I am treated like a suspect. I certainly don't pay people specifically to treat me like a suspect. As you might guess, this means that I don't do business with commercial airlines.
It also means that I avoid sporting events that require pat-downs. Or neighborhood parties that require criminal background checks. Or schools with metal detectors at the entrance.
In general, if an event is so sketchy and risky that it requires those measures, I take it as a signal to avoid that event. When I see somebody dressed in full combat gear I know I am not where I want to be.

It must be wonderful to be able to fly private, but that isn't an option for most of the people that are the subject of this conversation.
You'll apparently "lose your dignity" in October [1].
I can't fathom why my bank would need to know if I am allowed to drive.
An ID and a driver's license are not necessarily the same thing.
