India is in the process of issuing 1.2 billion ID cards, using Biometric technology. Pretty much fool proof. Why not here?
As a conservative I am concerned about privacy--yet the Feds, State government, insurance companies, the Internet have all the information you can imagine to piece the veil of privacy.
Since we no longer have privacy--stores have "hidden" camera's, government has them on street corners and many other places.
" In any case the numbers are striking. In fiscal year 2009 there were 556,000 border arrests compared with 723,000 in fiscal year2008 and 1,675,000 in fiscal year 2000. In addition, the amount of marijuana and cocaine seized increased sharply in 2009 over 2008, suggesting that a higher proportion of illegal border crossers now are drug couriers rather than would-be illegals seeking work." Of course there are no numbers for the terrorists who have sneaked into our nation.
Is this the time for Biometrics? Time to end illegal aliens sneaking into our nation? What do you think?
