you are right.
And remember, while the West celebrated as the old Soviet Union collapsed, all those brilliant young minds who once had secure government employment turned to the only outlet they could-organised crime which is why the Russian Mafia now outstrips most criminal gangs and has spread worldwide.
ID cards will just be a hassle for honest folk-real professional criminals will turn them to their advantage.
Meanwhile some corporation will make a motza off the taxpayer for another useless trial.
