02/09/2004 Archived Entry: "The best fake ID"

THE NEW YORK TIMES NOW CONFIRMS what illegal immigrants and undergrounders have known for years: the best fake ID is real ID obtained by bribing DMV workers.

Absurdly, the motor-vehicle bureaucrats are using this as (yet another) justification of "tighter ID standards" -- aka biometric national ID. But that's goofy. For the same $350 bucks as you get your current barcoded "fake" license, you'll still be able to get your "fake" biometric license. Okay, so maybe it'll cost $400. But it'll still be better than the real deal.
