Deceived by the devils decisions, forced into a slave
Death before dishonour for those men who were brave
Shot and sent to their grave, can't awaken, it's too late
Everything's been taken, I'm shaken, family, history, the making

All this information is aviable on you should the goverment want to find it.BloodAngel wrote:I think the ACLU putting this way over the line of "hyperbole"...
They just have to call your credit card company, which has records on everything you bought, were you live, who your married too. Just cross refencing it with the Goverment's records of your tax status(Who you work for, relationships and assets ect) and all that information can be had.
But not in such a snappy format as that.

It's bad enough when the government has it, but when any two-bit company can do that (and some opportunistic fuckwit corporation will write a program that does present it in such a snappy manner!) and refuse you service, or worse, charge you an arm, both legs, an eye, an ear, and your left nut and four inches of your genitalia Just Because; then I have cause to ask for a court judgement that renders this shit unconstitutional via the 4th Amendment!Mr Bean wrote:All this information is aviable on you should the goverment want to find it.BloodAngel wrote:I think the ACLU putting this way over the line of "hyperbole"...

What about the voting record part? I may be naive, but I don't believe they'd record that.
Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance, and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes you can do these things... their number is negligible and they are stupid. --Dwight D. Eisenhower

That's nice, definitely creepy. Though the national identification number thing already exists, it's called "Social Security Number". It wasn't originally inteded to work as an ID, but the need for one means that Social Security Numbers along with drivers licenses are the chief method of proving you are who you say you are.

Yeah, that's not really surprising at all. Any determined search on anyone will bring up all that (and potentially more). The most comforting thing (which actually might not be that comforting) is that the beaucracy is so large they won't even bother putting in that time or effort into looking into your records. Either that, or it'll take them a long-ass time for find anything important.
