I watched the show. Most revealing to me is ALL vehicles made after 2010 have GPS location/tracking capability. If they have your vin #, they can track your vehicle. It would be VERY difficult for the ordinary person to elude LEOs. Illegals can do it through their network of friends/family, unregistered uninsured vehicles and false multi-identities.
Knowing what we know from wikileaks about car hacking assassination capablities, why the Statist push to get rid of old cars. One more reason, aside from destroying the middle class, for obamaumao to push the Cash for Clunkers— which removed affordable vehicles from the regular working folk, and gave them a taxable “credit” to go into hock buying a new tech, hackable and trackable vehicle. Accomplishing destruction of the used car market at the same time. What a Volkswageny thing for the mack daddy who used to drive a bug (many euphemisms for that).
Like Lenin interested in Pavlov’s work— for application with people. Control.
And, on the second front the “new State” gooooogle uber driverless cars would cover those souls who didn’t get their own vehicle and the incessant push for “public” light rail (which no-one wants to ride, or does) and “high speed” rail (which no one wants to as well). Turn the whole country— this vast beautiful, and free for the moment, country into controlled, monitored and enslaved units.
Chips in pets, chips in people— open up the doors and SEE all the people. The STASI could have only dreamed of this.
