Thanks for posting this the Lou Dobbs article. So this is the preparations for destroying our country via NAFTA, CAFTA, and the FTAA.
NAFTA was a collosal failure otherwise we wouldn't be in this predicament today. So now we are going for more failure. Has there ever been a card or document that cannot be counterfeited?
Are we so stupid to think that with all these treaties that Mexico won't have access to our data base? Just how will we be able to give them our Social Security and Medicare without access in Mexico and South America?
If the database has a photo and description of the holder that could be matched to the one on and digitally embedded in the card, ID theft of SS cards would be virtually eliminated. The age of the holder wouldn't even matter as the photos from the database, the photo embedded in the strip, and the photo on the card would all have to match since each is an exact duplicate.
Here's how: I present my new card with my visable photo on it. If there is any question of ID, the clerk comparing the two scans the card by placing it into the scanner and a split screen reader retreives the national database image and displays it on the right side while the card's embedded digital image is displayed on the left or vice-versa. The image on the card and the two on the screen had better digitally and visably match or if not, the scanner may "confiscate" the card and a report of the discrepancy is made.
