>You can get a RealID compliant driver's license (plastic credit card sized item) or state ID (ditto) You don't need a smart phone. For now. You used to be able to pay for parking without downloading an app. You used to be able to buy dynamite without doxing yourself to the feds (something that you don't really think is all that important until you have to clear a lot of forested land and the reality of your options for dealing with stumps and boulders becomes clear). | ||

The Government kills a lot of people in various non-war wars around the world that create people who would like revenge because they saw their parents get burned to death, etc. by American made munitions. It might be part of becoming the dominant defense supplier. Our weapons are so complicated it takes a lot of American know how to keep them maintained and probably even fire them. This puts Americans everywhere with a conflict. We all get to pay with absolute security. If I killed people all of the time it would be hard to track who I killed, their living relations, even bystanders it makes sense to mistrust everyone. A few months ago going through a TSA line at an airport they were taking everyone's photo for biometrics and made it seem mandatory. I went along with it, not fighting it, maybe you can opt-out for a bit but eventually the Government always makes it mandatory. https://www.kxnet.com/news/top-stories/the-us-is-presently-i... https://www.palestinechronicle.com/let-him-never-be-forgotte... https://www.wsj.com/tech/cybersecurity/u-s-wiretap-systems-t... | ||
