Smart Chips and F--- you.

In our Technical Corrections, at the Max Weber Institute, we considered the importance of biometric information for the establishment of the applicant’s identity. We pointed out that “smart chips” were not important for the establishment of identity. The chip remains with the applicant and so, therefore, it is untrustworthy; because it is subject to being tampered with and its data altered.
In North Korea a scientist has probably already broken the State Department’s code for the new passport chips, (in order to get a bigger food ration for his family).
The only advantage the chip offers is that the clerk at the immigration counter does not have to type in the information, or scan in the printed information on the passport, but can now electronically down load the information from the chip. The only change is a clerical time saving innovation.
Yet to read the news coverage one would think that the chips offers a new level of security. It does not. Forgers must now know electronic forgery yet in some ways this makes forgery easier. It can be forged electronically.
If security is to be increased it can only be done in the database which verifies the information that is collected. In other words it does not matter if the information is scanned from the document, typed in, or draw in electronically from a smart chip, what is needed is a trusted database. The biometric information needs to be taken from the person themselves, not the chip. This bio-scan needs to be checked not against the chip that was in the possession of the applicant but against the trusted database.
But then I do not want to get drawn into this. If the idiots in the media want to report that the “smart chip” is improving security --- fine. If the fools at the State Department can sell this --- ok. The Administration can claim it is making America safe ---- sure.
Who cares? I have given up. 3.5 million are crossing the southern border every year. I do not care. Leave the legal immigration limit from Mexico at 170,000 --- yeah. The Post Liberal elite prefers illegals to citizens. The illegals can be violated and deported if they speak out or object.
President Bush used to say he wanted to let in anyone for any job at any time. After he was roundly ridiculed for this absurd proposal he changed it. But not until he got a 10% increase in the Hispanic vote. (He might have gotten these votes with out making these foolish statements.)
Now Mr. Bush says that anyone can be brought into the country for any job at any time, if, the job is advertised. He has been reelected. Now why is he sounding like an idiot?
Obviously if there is no standard for “advertising” a note in a shop window will do. And what is on the note? Wanted, insurance adjuster, $7.00 an hour. Why not? This is what Mr. Bush now says he wants. And no one will question him. He has driven expectations down so low that he can say the most preposterous things and no one bats an eye.
Earlier this year California’s courts upheld a $122 million judgment against Farmers Insurance for failure to pay overtime. (Bell v. Farmers Ins. Exchange, 115 Cal. App. 4th 715 (2004) Is this the reason the Administration wanted to change the law for overtime?) Mr. Bush says it is alright with him if Farmers replaces the adjusters with people who want to move to the United States. A job and citizenship too!
But I am not going to get involved in any of this either.
3.5 million over the southern border every year, the President says he thinks anyone should be allowed in for any job at any time, ( after it has been “advertised”), and then they put “smart chips” on the passport and think they have made an improvement. ‘See,. . . it is on the littl’chip thing in there, . . . see . . . it is electronic.’
You are all just f . . . . and I do not care. Yeah, screw you too.
