Perhaps maybe Dan Larimer's vision could work (DPoS). I believe his heart is in the right place, but I'm very distrustful of putting PII in authorities hands. The reality now is that it is no longer necessary to secure ID through authority. PGP actually solved this with Phil Zimmerman back in the early 90's, but the state still want's its control over you. You have to ask what you're getting in return, and right now that return is a very raw deal.
