I have friends who are Coptics (Eastern Right Orthodox Christians) in Egypt, they now live in the States; they can give you first hand info regarding smart cards.

In Egypt, they put the religion of the holder on the card and since Egypt is 99% Muslim, one can only imagine the prejudice exhibited against these poor Coptics.

Many are marked for death while traveling to Church, bias from all governmental agencies, bias on the job, if one is in business they experience a drop off of customers, and so on.

We can not allow the USA to do this. First it will be your religion, then whether or not you are a gun owner, if one is pro life, etc. The amount of information on these cards is endless..

The amount of information on these cards is endless.

It is only limited by the amount of data one can physically fit on a chip, or on countless databases to be referenced by ID#/SSN which is as you say, endless.

No legal restrictions will limit the amount of data to be accessed by your "drivers license".

And they have the nerve to not call it a NATIONAL ID.
