Why does Facebook want uploaded government issued IDs?

[Daisy]

To verify your account they Facebook wants your Government Issued IDs ,and license depth information. What next your social security number? They already have a place for you to pay with a bank account debt card to the games your attracted to play. Has Facebook crossed a red line to far?
Isn't this website just a social network and why isn't this undergoing identity fraud investigation?
Facebook is now an intrusion.
