Do me a favor
moosenose, take your foor out of your mouth while you still can.
State databases are not accessable by federal authorities without a court order. As it has been pointed out, this is one step closer to the
Federal gov maintaining a database. Right now all Washington knows about anyone is their name, age, and social. Social has no location information attatched to it, nor does name and age. In fact everytime Uncle Sam needs to know where you live he has to call up the IRS and ask them what the address is on your W2.
I beleive in the real America, the one free of government intervention in the name of "
saftey". Where the government is never allowed to know more than it barely needs to function and not one peice of information more. A small government is a good government. A small constrained government chokes power from Washington. Becuase our country is founded only on the basis that our government will do what is needed to continue, and not a damn thing more.
When you show me how this isn't a violation of Amendment X on the basis that this has always been delegated to the state as a right, we'll talk. Until then it's a violation of our founding principals and is simply waiting for the supreme court review on the baisis of violating states rights.
