national identity card 400 600 words

The events of 9/11 increased calls for the establishment of a national identification system; proponents argue that such a system might have prevented the attacks. Others decry that the adoption of national identity cards would be yet another step down the slippery slope of government surveillance.

  • Provide at least 1 specific example of how national identity cards are used.
  • How would it be possible (or would it be impossible?) to safeguard the information that is contained on a high-tech national identity card? Discuss whether or not personal information, such as medical records, criminal history, or mental health problems should be encoded on such cards.
  • What are the proposed advantages of a national identification card?
  • What are some of the possible disadvantages of a national identification card?
  • If a system of national identification cards had been in place prior to September 11, 2001, could it have prevented the terrorist attacks?
