Flew into and of Oshkosh at the last airshow a couple of times, no ramp check. The only place I saw FAA inspectors was at their stand where I said g'day and discussed a few things. I was not looked down upon or treated like a criminal.
They did however, look at me like I was a weird person when I asked them if they had anything like an ASIC. He asked why I would want that, I explained to him that it has halted all aviation related terrorist attacks, stopped any unauthorised access at aerodromes particularly in places like Warrnambool and is the most respected ID in all of Australia. He wasn't convinced of this. He said he'd much prefer the freedoms he enjoyed than a useless ID card. I couldn't believe that he held the ASIC in complete contempt, I feel so safe and secure that I sleep with it around my neck
