You have probably heard of the Democrat’s proposed BELIEVE System?
The national ID program would be titled the Believe System, an acronym for Biometric Enrollment, Locally stored Information and Electronic Verification of Employment.
It would require all workers across the nation to carry a card with a digital encryption key that would have to match work authorization databases.
“The cardholder’s identity will be verified by matching the biometric identifier stored within the microprocessing chip on the card to the identifier provided by the cardholder that shall be read by the scanner used by the employer,†states the Democratic legislative proposal.
Guess who has a problem with it….
The folks at FireDogLake.
But not for the reason you’re thinking.
Now, let’s pretend for a moment that this national ID program would actually fix the problem of employers trying to hire cheap, vulnerable labor rather than paying market rate wages. Let’s pretend for a moment that this national ID program would avoid all of the security and privacy issues that such a program will be bound to have.
Why in fuck’s name would anyone with a “D†next to their name advocate for a national card–of any sort–without at the same time attaching it to automatic voter registration, also tied to the card?
I know! It would be a great thing for Democrats! They could have millions of illegals who are stealing jobs and identites AND voting all with one fell national swoop!
Pelosi and Reid must be totally facepalming right now.
