You are correct about needing ID to board (although airlines can be casual in checking them). Further, if the card is positively tied to the holder by some biometric, anyone can be barred from flying (and, perhaps, held for questioning by other authorities).

No system is completely foolproof but I think this system would have kept the 9/11 attackers from causing so much harm.

One of the biggest issues associated with the ID is that it would force the government to reveal its REAL policies re illegal immigration.
