Is he actually defrauding anybody? I mean his name basically *is* Clark Kent. It's the Superman thing that's closer to fake.

I think he might get a pass on the illegal alien issue too, because of the physical impossibility of the United States deporting him to his now nonexistent home world - there are some UN conventions that forbid you to criminalize someone continuing to live on the planet because nowhere will accept them. I suppose he really ought to apply for refugee status on the grounds being returned to the toxic (kryptonite filled) environment of his shattered native planet would endanger his life.

Though I dunno, the Kents might have formally adopted him, which would cover both of those. You'd think they'd have had to have *some* sort of paperwork straightened out somewhere to do stuff like enroll him in school.
