identification checkpoints do nothing to improve safety

My desire to be on a plane is unaffected by whether or not the U.S. government asked the names of people prior to boarding.

What difference would it make if the airport security guards asked and attempted to verify the names of the people next to you on the plane or if those people boarded anonymously?
