Why do citizens need documented?

Why would we now still need our documentation as citizens? Can't we just go around and say we are illegal and reap the benefits? They are not documented, they can say what they want. They could make up a name, past history, whatever, and just go get their ID. Why can't we?

Update:

Whatever machoman. Excuses, excuses.

Update 2:

There are homeless, poor, people here that don't make excuses and don't commit crimes. Should we feel sorry for them if they rob someone or rob a store? and then just say "thats okay, you were looking for a better life."

    I like being an honest American who follows the very laws; but because of that my government would actually enforce those laws on me...

    What a great idea!

    We could flood the INS offices, making it impossible for them to process the illegals. We all need to demand that we get the break from taxes and still get credit on our social security without ever paying a dime into it.

    Why is it that every idiot in this country believe illegals can just show up and ask for a driver license, it doesn't work that way. First people complaint about illegals taking their jobs, and then they bi*ch about illegals not paying taxes. Don't contradict yourselves, if they are working then they are paying taxes, and guess what if they are working on fake ss# they don't get income tax returns or retirement, or welfare like many of those who live complaining about them.

    THANK YOU "TALK IS CHEAP"

    !!!

    Immigrants can only get a REAL ID if they have a valid passport. Obviously if they don't have a passport they are illegal so they can't get an ID. And some illegals do pay their taxes. actually they already do since they are working and they don't even get retirement money or welfare. So illegals don't get a "free" life here in the us.

    I wouldn't demean myself or my beloved U.S.A. by pretending to be an illegal alien. The illegals are doing more than enough of that already.

    DEPORT!! NO SHAMNESTY!!!
