The SS card isn't equipped with all that stuff because it was never supposed to be used as either an ID card or a national ID card. However, given the usage that it has fallen into, it may be worthwhile to consider changing the SS card as you suggested. It could go a long way to helping close the problem with illegal aliens. It's a better idea than that which Bush had proposed.
In general, I support the NRO article. We have FAILED, completely, to enforce the immigration law in order for the politicians to continue their pandering to these lawbreakers. What concerns me is how long it will take for our elected officials to begin pandering in force to murderers, rapists, drug dealers, robbers, etc. Already, there has been discussion about restoring voting rights to convicted criminals. What's next? Given murderers a slap on the wrist for their first conviction and telling them not to do it again?
Lawbreakers are lawbreakers. If rewarding one segment of our society with citizenship for breaking the law is supposed to be good, imagine what reward we'll get from the government if we ALL break the law. Oh boy!!!!

True, the socialist security card was never meant as an ID, but it has become that for everything from checking accounts to medical insurance and anything in between - and it's the easiest form of fraud. There would be no hesitation in Government to strengthen against currency's counterfeit-ability if they were dealing with Jacksons or Franklins in the same volume of fraud. That's a proven fact. We need to force our government to take better security protections over what we have, over what's ours.
