14. What am I supposed to do

If someone presents a seemingly valid social security card, passport, or green card, I am required to take it at face value.

Companies have been and are regularly sued for performing additional investigation (claims of discrimination of ethnic origin). Even if I win or the suit is dropped, a lawsuit means $5-10K plus at least a day of my time at a minimum.

Change the law, charge companies who don't meet the minimal requirements, but don't blame companies for doing what their lawyers tell them will give them the least likelyhood of being sued by anyone / fined by the government.
