Big Brother is knocking and he's comin' inPosted Sunday, December 9, 2007, at 11:17 PM
First up are the newest credit card commercials. We see this beautiful scene at a local business establishment, where all the people are harmoniously going about their business and the world looks like a big ball of sunshine. Then the most evil of things happen -- some person whips out cash or a check and brings this harmonious event to a screeching halt. The cashless society is upon us and for those of us who wish to keep our beloved dollar bills, our days are numbered. The reason? We are the individuals that are a threat to tear down that beautiful scene and that cannot be tolerated. Next, check out the current edition of a traditional board game where you travel in a square and pass rental properties along the way. Now it has an electronic edition. Again, no need for that pesky think called cash, just give the banker your card, they swipe it and all is OK in the world. Conditioning before the age of 10 -- you gotta love it. And the final item I will rant on tonight is the new driver's license. I was issued my very own tracking device just recently and I keep peeping over my shoulder. "The new design features a number of embedded digital enhancements to ensure authenticity, some detectable only with a black light, and a barcode on the back with embedded secure data." That is an exact quote off the BMV website. Digital enhancements? Barcode with Embedded secure data? I don't know about you but it makes me more than a little nervous. I love to read old science fiction and some of the things I've read are starting to come true. The first book that comes to mind is Fahrenheit 451. Look at the central ideas and the technology that is sprinkled throughout the book. Sounds familiar doesn't it. Or I just could be paranoid. :) "Be not intimidated... nor suffer yourselves to be wheedled out of your liberties by any pretense of politeness, delicacy, or decency. These, as they are often used, are but three different names for hypocrisy, chicanery and cowardice." -- John Adams, second U.S. President Comments Showing most recent comments first [Show in chronological order instead] |

Thank you Thank you Thank you
Between surveillance (let's call it what it is) and the tearing apart of our constitution we are headed in a direction of which our founding fathers would be appalled.
Read Naomi Wolf's "The End of America-A Letter to a Young Patriot" Maybe one of the most important books out there.
"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."
--Abraham Lincoln
The Government is already fielding that technology on the Military. We already have our history and medical information in our ID cards in an embedded chip and barcodes on the back. (This includes social security number, blood type, religious prefrence and more, all information can be accessed via fingerprint identification and/or pin number). Ask any person in the Military to see their ID card to see what it looks like.
We also have a (no cash) system(called Eagle Cash here in the field) just like it, also using embedded chip technology tied directly to ones bank.
No, you are NOT being paranoid, tested by the US Military.
