International Identification System

The young frumpled, former CTO, ambassador from Sideros steps forward.

"My fellow delegates. In this age of unprecedented information sharing, international travel, and as well unease and discomfort because of terrorists incidents world wide, I ask that we discuss the possibility of an International Identification System to replace our antiquated nation specific passport systems. I am proposing a resolution for 'International Identification'"

<shuffles a few papers>

"An International Identification System (or IIDS for short) would increase the efficiency of handling routine administrative transactions between government agencies and citizens, with benefits claimed in the areas of information management, convenience, cost savings and fraud reduction. IIDS could combine the functions of a driver's license, social security registration, immigration documents, and other government-issued identification into a single document and international database.
"

<tanks a drink of water>

"Consistency of documentation across international boundries and instant access to detailed information on the citizenry of the world would increase the ease of international travel and promote global business while at the same time increasing security internationally as well."

<stacks his papers altogether>

"Thank you for listening to my proposal. I shall be intrigued by the discussion this may spark."

There seem to be unaddressed holes to this proposal that need some serious clarification:

On ID that serves as passport, drivers license, social security card, etc, etc. How does this apply to someone who is enrolled/eligble for one program, but not another? IE someone with a suspended driver's license but a valid SS id? Or an minor who is ineligble to have a driver's license, but eligible for a passport?

All my citizens now have bar codes, so I can track their movements. Recognising the shocking drop in crime following the implementation of this, maybe we should adopt THIS as a system of international identification...

Your crime rate dropped because the government is now the criminal.

Which is my objection to the trend of this proposal. Leave us some privacy.
