For example, how does ID account for the barrier between supposed Macro and Micro evolution? If things change, and we know they change, what mechanism prevents those changes from resulting in new "kinds" over time? There must be some mechanism preventing these changes from stacking up to the point where an Ape becomes a Man.
ID does not propose any such barrier. Why do you insist that such a barrier must exist? Even if evolutionary theory is completely wrong, why must it be wrong in exactly this way?
These seem like fundamental questions for ID to answer if it makes the assertion that life can change as we observe but that it can't change on the macro scale.
Does ID make such an assertion?

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning. Frederick Douglass
