Default Re: Air travel security is retarded - why?

I never understood why IDing people is so important on domestic flights within Canada/US/etc. - does this really do anything?

On a serious reply note. Passenger manifests are required to be correct for several reasons. The most basic ones are "bag to passenger matching" for secuirty purposes AND knowing who just died when the plane crashes for insurance/family notification purposes.

Can you propose another way to assure the passenger manifests are accurate without ID checks?
