Identity verification is basically useless as a security measure as would be any information used to create a "Trusted Traveller" program. There is of course no correlation between your likelihood of wanting to blow up a plane and the
information in your tax return.
Travel industry analysts think the long-awaited report will continue the debate over screening procedures and add another element to it: Even a voluntary trusted-traveler approach would require passengers to provide credit information, tax returns and other personal data to verify that members pose little or no risk.
In return, they would be allowed to zip through security.
