Amnesty and my membership in the Republican party

No, it is not supposed to be a valid for of ID (that's why I said "for employment purposes" not "for identification purposes"). But it is a valid form of evidence that you are eligible to work in this country. And, as such, it only seems appropriate that it bear the ability to match that eligibility to the person holding the card.

Since the primary goal of illegal immigration is employment (as much as some would like to believe it is terrorism, welfare, anchor babies, and sleeping with our wommins) enforcing that employment eligibility would have a huge impact on the market for illegal immigration.
