The Joys of Real ID
By John Kedrowski

This "Real ID" stuff could really be a great thing...

Yeah, having all of our personal data accessible on a single nationalized database makes it easier for people to steal your identity, but that is because we are using an out-dated technology!

So, lets get with the times!!!!

Enter, the chip...

This wonderful piece of technology could do so many things!

First, our social security number and our government information could directly be implanted into our bodies so that it will never be lost and NEVER stolen.

The second thing is that all of our medical information would be available upon a quick scan of the implantation site.

The third thing is that we could finally do away with paper money altogether and use the chip to electronically access our financial information...no more PINs, IDs, and cards to get lost or stolen! Huzzah!

Fourthly, with the chip implanted in every American citizen, we could use GPS coordinates to track them anywhere and at anytime. This is perfect for our wayward children. Imagine a parent with a cell phone/GPS unit, they would always know where their kids were...And no child would ever be abducted again!

Fifthly, criminals, sex offenders, you name it, all of these untermensch could be tracked. The authorities could monitor their physical movements, their bank accounts, their purchases, heck...they could even monitor what these people are checking out at the library! This would be a probation officer's dream come true!

Sixthly, these chips would provide an excellent way to secure electronic data. All computers built in the US could be designed so that logging in would required a swipe of the implanted body area. And all computer data could be downloaded, backed up, and saved on your personal account. You wouldn't ever have to worry about losing anything or computer crashes again!

And seventhly, what a great way to control immigration! Upon legal entrance of this country, a person could be implanted with a "worker's chip" and a quick scan would verify if someone was legal or illegal. Heck, we could have scan posts set up at various high traffic areas in order to verify this information and if the chip wasn't present, the authorities could be immediately and electronically notified.

So, I hope you see, this "Real ID" system really is an important first step toward all of this progress. The establishment of this national database with one set of rules finally makes the technological switch to a new and more efficient form of technology possible.

Wow! We live in a great world with so many possibilities! The wonders of technology are marvelous and awe-inspiring. America is truly the greatest country in the world because our society is so competitively creative that we can come up with these wonderful solutions to all of these social problems...

"I pledge allegiance to the Flag
of the United States of America
And to the Republic for which it stands
One Nation, under God
Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for All."

Amen
