          Oh yeah, the federal identification card you can only get by… providing your social security card.

            Not a federal ID, but a federal standard for State IDs. And not “only”, but SocSec card is one of the several forms of ID you could use. Not required and not enough by itself.

              Tell me how I can get a star ID or a passport without a Social Security card

              I can’t even donate plasma without my Social Security card
