How do you feel about DNA data bases? I think it will soon be not much different than mandatory birth papers. I have slight concerns, but I think it is inevitable and in a decent society it is wonderful. In a corrupt society--all information is dangerous. But much in life is unknown. We can't avoid the woods because there is no path. I am not sure if DNA admits of a significant advantage to corruption--beyond what exists in a social security number.

I say, put people on file. The biggest problem (IMO) lies in DNA being improperly planted at a scene. This does scare me, but truthfully I have not looked close at the issue. I would be interested in other opinions.
