Up to a $3000 fine if you're caught without your papers.
Of course, that will also include a trip down to the police station until they can get positive ID.

Whenever I read about crap like this, I always think, why did we expend the lives of well over 500,000 of our soldiers & sailors, as well as literally trillions in today's dollars, defeating Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, Imperial Japan and Soviet Russia? If we're just going to live under totalitarianism anyway, why didn't we let the foreigners impose it on us, and save the whole world a good deal of trouble?
