That's not the point. oOo:

MSN and Yahoo have already given the information, but this goes far beyond internet searches.

What about if there was a camera on every street corner in every city, like London? What if the government were to issue you a national ID card that you had to present to any police officer and they could ask you at any time for it without probable cause.

Not sure about the states, but I do know that police can not ask you to identify yourself without having a reason to do so in Canada. It IS in our constitution.

The republican party was always based upon less government intervention, but now the US probably has the largest amount of government involvement in people's daily lives in the history of the country.

When governments ask you to give up liberties for security, all you get is tyrrany, not security. More control in the hands of fewer people.

Thanks but no thanks, I like democracy just fine.
