IT IS a Scary Attitude -
Using the same mentality you could say something like
"hang all criminals - since I am not a criminal"
It's also in the same vein as the
"First they came for the communists ......" poem

Cash?? What's cash?? Most people I know carry very little cash, pay their bills online or through an automated payment process,etc. Hmm...maybe that tracking device will soon be implanted in every citizen as a means to purchase food and other necessities.  _________________

Were nearly at that point now
Starting this fall? every credit/debt card transaction will be funnelled to the govt for review That was tacked onto the latest housing bail out bill
Unless you use cash, the govt will know about EVERYTHING you have ever purchased from now on. The IRS is already frothing at the mouth because they will be able to enforce out of state purchases where taxes are not immediately collected _________________

Unbeknownst to most folks, the government is now requiring that all newborn babies are implanted with a chip to track them for the rest of their lives. _________________ H3/AT/FL et.al. |

Absolutely not! Unfortunately Randy can't say the same. I guess it's also a good thing that I hate to shop.  _________________
