3. without it, we will never have a universal health care plan or |
|
true immigration control. A biometric GOOD ID would identify who was a citizen and who was not.. Without the way to differentiate who is and who is NOT a citizen, it's going to be very difficult to determine who is eligible to work here and who is eligible for health care..
Americans cannot just go to Canada and get health care or a job..
We have faux-anonymity , but little more ..
