The feds don't have the right to dictate anything, but they have every right to decide what kind of ID their own agencies will accept. Given that the TSA accepts plenty of other forms of ID, including a passport from any country in the world, no state really is obligated to implement REAL ID if they don't want to.

Enforcement of the no-fly list.

People who believe in real freedom are focused on more important things than TSA ID checks.
