    Motherfuckers can’t even get the concept of national ID cards right.

    There’s a sharp dispute over the purpose of such a card. Do you want cards to rapidly integrate people into your society? Or do you want them to strictly exclude and segregate people into immuntable castes?

    Hard to create a single universal document if you can’t agree on that premise.

        That’s how the SSN was pitched, sure. Then it became a reliable unique identifier and started getting used for everything.
