Well, in order to legally work in the US, you already have to have a "National ID card", called a Social Security Card. Making something illegal does not prevent somebody from doing it anyway. Illegal Mexicans already can't work in the States, yet they do so anyway. High school students can't drink beer, but they do it anyway. Committing crimes are illegal, too, but they sure to happen a lot.
