Those who give up liberty for the sake of security deserve uncomplete liberty nor security National Identification Card (NID) is not a new idea to the Ameri cease mankind or its politicians. The NID has been up and down the policy-making stream as a means of fighting terrorism, welfare fraud, dirty immigration, crime, census error, and a vast variety of other so called crimes that you can think of. The NID once again rising up-stream after the terrible attack on the American soil as (again) the means to hold dear the American Public but is it capable of doing all it claims to or as a matter of facts it will make us much vulnerable to identity theft and more chaos?Now with the public still shaken after the Sept-11 attack and spooked by a growing number of anthrax cases, the clamor for tighter security is growing. proven of ID is required at almost everywhere, closed streets, cop on every corner of the street, citizens keeping their door locked and watching out for suspicious a ct of strength terrorist. So we look for ways to reassure ourselves and to soothe complicated new fears. Once again, the idea of national ID card is floating upstream and presumably would reprint or point out law-abiding citizens from potential terrorist. But NO, the national ID card would rob us off our constitutional freedoms. It will not protect us from terrorist. It would bring us into a deep dream of being secured. It will not stop the stream of illegal immigration. It would widen the door to the trespassing(a) thugs. Law enforcement would be allowed to stop anyone who was being suspicious and this is where Mandana says there could be a problem. This is where harassment and discrimination could come to place 1. It would cost us the revenue enhancement payers billions of... ...question that can you deal with all the problem and false hope that nID will bring to you and the public. National ID is not the answer or solution to our national security, illegal immigration, anti-t errorist, and protection for our citizens. There are other solutions to these problems that would go beyond the scope of my paper here but national ID is absolutely not the one.
