Even more effective would be a system that allowed persons who consent to donate their organs upon death to bequeath their compensation. Currently only 35 percent of licensed drivers and ID card holders register to be organ donors. One would expect many more Americans to register if it meant that this would swell the inheritance they leave behind by several thousand dollars...
...Palme d'Or winners for Rosetta in 1999 and L'Enfant in 2005, the Belgian brothers are back with another underclass minimalist melodrama, this time set in the polyglot city of Liege. An Albanian girl (Arta Dobroshi) is in an arranged marriage with a drug addict to get her ID; the scheme of the criminals who control her is to kill off the junkie so Lorna can be sold into marriage with a rich Russian who also needs an ID.

...that this law protects against the imminent threat of voter fraud—are misguided. This law, which is one of the nation’s toughest, does not allow voters to use utility or phone bills or employee identification at the polls. The necessity of government-issued photo ID means that citizens are required to spend money on an ID which might be useless to them in all other contexts. Although the Supreme Court disagrees, this action is blatantly discriminatory toward those people who do not need driver’s licenses. Although the Indiana motor vehicle agency will...
