The Australia Card was raised in the 80s but privacy groups extinguished it.
A national identity card is required because the current means of establishing 100 points is a joke.
A drivers licence and p****port is currently the only means of verifying a person's identity.
The problem is that the current system has to cater for people that do not drive and have never left the country.
Instead, a birth certificate, bill, credit card, Medicare, etc. are used, all of which have no photo.
I have witnessed people substituting themselves with others to complete university exams and driving tests.
Hell, you can get a job and supply a TFN without any verification of identity.
In other countries, you are required to carry identity cards at all times. Failure to do so results in immediate imprisonment.
It seems that the government don't really care about protecting taxpayers from:
* ratbags who fraudulently claim welfare
* rip off other people/companies by p****ing themselves off as someone else
* or worse, are illegal immigrants that work for cash.
