Who knows? It's like the credit card companies are stuck in 20th century technology. There is a lot we can do to secure our wallets and our borders with a simple smart card technology and national ID cards. But ironically, the liberal folks that will call us paranoid about security, are themselves paranoid about the judicious use of technology.

Frankly, I'm not afraid of policemen coming after me if they know more about me, because I'm a law abiding citizen. My only real fear with policemen have greater access to my information is that gov't institutions are oftentimes untrained in security and are more prone to information security lapses than private companies. When I say this, I mean institutions like Dept of Transportation and your city and state institutions. I'm not talking about Fed, military, and pentagon, etc. Anyway, all of that can be worked out, but it takes effort.
