Franklin Delano Roosevelt started the social security program. Back then, Americans were worried that social security would become a means for the federal government to invade citizens' privacy. FDR hastened to his radio microphone to assure people: "Ah prahmise that yo' social suhcurity numbah will nevah be used foah othah than social suhcurity puhposes." Obviously, he lied.
Illegal immigration from Mexico is causing many kinds of trouble for Americans. After sneaking across the border and joining with a network of legally established Latinos, they go forth among employers to underbid the American worker for jobs.
Thomas Jefferson observed, 200 years ago, that businessmen "have no country" (i.e., no patriotism): the employers began hiring the Mexicans, knowing that they were illegal and also knowing that hiring them denies employment to American citizens.
So in 1986, Congress passed the "Immigration Reform and Control Act," which requires job applicants to show a social security card to employers. The response of the invaders was to establish illegal methods for forging social security cards. Many of the document forgers are Latinos who are legally resident in the US, or who work for US agencies that operate in Mexico. Hispanic workers at US Consulates have been caught creating fake identity documents, such as passports, and selling them out the back door.
Now there's discussion about creating a "new" social security card and requiring everybody to have one and display it on demand to law enforcement, ICE, HUD, DHS, FBI, the postal service, and probably any other government authority (eventually). And even that won't fix the problems that illegals cause because their legally resident co-racialists will infiltrate each of these departments and agencies and find sneaky ways to evade any conceivable documentary safeguard.
Any bureaucratic attempt to isolate illegal immigrants will fail because the illegals will have sympathizers on the inside of the bureaucracy. Not only that, every "new and improved" document ostensibly aimed at protecting Americans will only create a new market for the Latino document forgers to make money in.
The government will do everything EXCEPT get the Mexicans out, which is the ONLY thing that will really eliminate the trouble. A war with Mexico would be expensive, but in the long run it would be less expensive than having thirty million, then forty million, then fifty million... Mexicans in the USA.

It used to be that you had to be 14 or so to obtain it; now you need it just after being born to declare them on income taxes.
