• Identification Card Conspiracy Theories.
• More specifically, though, mandatory or quasi-mandatory identification cards (ID) are a distinctly 20th century phenomenon, as is the belief that the issuance and checking of ID form part of a conspiracy.
• The assignment of Social Security Numbers (SSNs) to workers in the 1930s produced concerns e. ...
• " The Hearst newspapers asked, "Do you want a tag and a number in the name of false security?," and spread the rumor that all workers would be required to wear conscription-like "dog tags" displaying the beastly SSN (see Arthur Schlesinger, The Age of Roosevelt: The Politics of Upheaval, 1960, p. ...
• But even someone who can laugh at the fears and conspiracy theories that met the introduction of the SSN has to admit today that "the early critics were at least close to being correct in their predictions that the numbers would become all-purpose identifiers, despite the assurances of the supporters that it would not happen" (Max Skidmore, Social Security and Its Enemies, 1999, p. ...
• The US does not have a national ID card. ...
• 11 was quickly followed by calls for a secure national ID card. These calls were generally premised on the idea that the US already has a de facto national ID card, in the form of drivers licenses, and a national ID number, in the form of the SSN, and that the system simply had to be made less easily spoofed by foreign terrorists (little note was made of the US's rich supply of domestic terrorists). Opponents of the national ID plans somewhat similarly maintain that the US's scattered and semi-incoherent ID system has a large slippery-slope component, which amounts to an incipient de facto national ID.
• Opponents of national ID often assert that, because totalitarian systems rely on ID cards (Nazi Germany's IBM-supplied ID system, the Soviet internal passport, and apartheid South Africa's pass system being key examples), therefore ID cards themselves represent a thin edge of the wedge, a foot in the door, of Big Brother, who could arrive piecemeal via technological improvements and small regulatory changes, as a kind of "death of a thousand cuts. ...
• A different group of ID opponents does see a literal conspiracy. ... "national id conspiracy", "social security number new world order", or "id card gun confiscation" will yield thousands of web pages asserting that drivers licenses and SSNs have already come together to form a "papers, please" Big Brother scenario, in which federal agents, representing a "politically correct" dictatorship, can stop Americans at any time and demand to see their ID.
• For example, Oklahoma City bombing conspirator Terry Nichols had at one point attempted to back out of a $20,000 debt by attempting to repudiate his US citzenship; he destroyed his driver's license, passport, and voter registration card. Similar ID-revocation techniques have been used in attempts to avoid child-support payments, back taxes, gun registration, seatbelt laws, speed limits, and similar infringements on "sovereign" citizens.
• These groups which? describe ID cards as part of a conspiracy to hook citizens into rejecting their "sovereign" status. ...
• One advocate of "Common Law Courts" in 1995 said that, "With the unlawful passage of the 14th Amendment, a second class citizenship was established for blacks and those unsuspecting Citizens of Freeman character who unknowingly, unwillingly or unintentionally volunteered to give up their Constitutional protections for corporate State privileges (birth certificate, marriage license, driver's license, banking account #, social security #, etc. ...

• THE PROPOSED ID SYSTEM AND CARD.
• Section 656(b) of the Illegal Immigration and Immigrant Responsibility Reform Act of 1996 requires the Department of Transportation to issue regulations that would effectively coerce every state to place every driver's social security number on the license or other identification card the state issues. Any state that did not comply with this federal mandate would be required to verify the social security number with the Social Security Administration ("SSA"), or, in the alternative, the driver's license or other ID card the state issues would not be acceptable for federal identification purposes. Section 656(b) also requires that these state-issued driver's licenses and ID cards follow a "form" dictated by the federal government. ...
• This statute requires states to issue ID cards that conform to an exacting federal standard including a photograph and physical description, and which would be supported by systems of records that would be linked or matched to other records by reference to the SSN of the driver. This is a national ID system. ... Section 656(b) reduces states to mere tools of federal government for purposes of issuing ID documents because the content and form of documents they issue are dictated by the federal government. Because the federal government dictates what goes on the ID card, and because it effectively requires that records of the identifying data be tied to a federal identifying number, states would henceforth issue what are in essence national ID cards. ...

• What a national ID card might look like.
• September 11 was quickly followed by calls from some lawmakers and business leaders for a more robust national identification system: ID cards that possess sophisticated biometric data, making them harder to forge than today's driver's licenses. Privacy advocates are strongly opposed, arguing that such cards, while enabling the government to track individuals and access personal data, would do little to separate the innocent citizen from the walking security threat. For now, the Bush administration is cool to the idea, but it's not hard to envision the Department of Homeland Security re-examining the concept if further terrorist attacks occur. More than 30 countries, from Italy to Malaysia, have already introduced "smart" ID cards. If you're eventually issued a national card, it will likely incorporate several of the technologies shown here, combined to make the card readable by both high- and low-tech devices. ...

• Proponents of a national ID card say the cards will increase security and homeland defense by having a consistent method of identifying people who may or may not be involved in terrorist activities.

A standard ID issued nationally would present more unity and order among Americans across state lines.
• Additionally, proponents argue that such a card could prove invaluable in cases of missing children and medical emergencies.

Like all Americans, the ACLU supports efforts to ensure our security from terrorist threat; but we remain convinced that we need not sacrifice our civil liberties to protect safety. ...
• We ask Congress to use a three-prong analysis to promote safety and to reduce the likelihood that new security measures would violate civil liberties. ...
• First, any new security proposals must be genuinely effective, rather than creating a false sense of security. Second, security measures should be implemented in a non-discriminatory manner. ... Finally, if a security measure is determined to be genuinely effective, the government should work to ensure that its implementation minimizes its cost to our fundamental freedoms, including the rights to due process, privacy and equality. ...
• A national identification card does not pass these basic tests. A national ID card would substantially infringe on the rights of privacy and equality of many Americans, yet would not prevent terrorist attacks. The ACLU strongly opposes the creation of a national ID card, whether the card is embodied in plastic, or whether the "card" is intangible - a sort of "virtual reality" card consisting instead of a government-mandated computerized database containing information about most people in the United States linked by a government-issued identifier. ...
• Since September 11, national ID proposals have been discussed in the media and in the Congress as possible counterterrorism measures. ...
• NATIONAL ID CARD OR SYSTEM WOULD BE AN INEFFECTIVE COUNTERTERRORISM MEASURE AND WOULD SERIOUSLY UNDERMINE BASIC LIBERTIES .
• A national ID card or system would not be an effective counterterrorism measure. ...
• First, national ID cards would create a false sense of security and divert valuable resources from other more effective counterterrorism efforts. ...
• The rationale for creating a national ID system post-September 11 is to create a clear line between "us" (innocent people) and "them" (dangerous terrorists). Everyone would like an ID card that would put them squarely on the right side of the line and exempt them from suspicion and heightened security scrutiny when they board a plane or go to work. ...

• identification card. Our licenses already have most of the features of a national ID card, and state governments are hard at work improving what little they lack. From there, it'll be only a small step for America to adopt a full-fledged national ID card. ...
• The national ID card that civil libertarians fear most is one that is issued to all citizens, who must carry it at all times; contains a unique number and personal information; and is required by government agencies and businesses for those who transact with them. Libertarians fear the ability of governments and corporations to use a national ID as a means to know much about us and to use that information against us. ...
• But this ID may already be in our back pockets. The American driver's license has the main features of a national ID card: It's issued to nearly every adult, it contains a photo and a unique identifying number, and government agencies routinely request it as a means of identification. ...
• Our driver's licenses aren't quite a national ID, however, because of three shortcomings: The federal government doesn't require you to carry one, there's no common numbering format among the 50 states, and businesses don't widely use driver's licenses for authentication. ...
• Why? Businesses have been moving away from using the Social Security number as the unique code for matching customer records in their databases, in part because of a new California law restricting these kinds of uses. ...
• According to some reports, some policy-makers have already identified the laws that would need to be amended to allow the driver's license to become the national ID. ...
