Remember David Dreier? The Congressman and co-chair of Californians for Bush outed by Mike Rogers at blogACTIVE due to his homophobic voting record? Well, he's at the forefront of the techie revolution as well, only naturally on the wrong end of it. He's pushing to force all Americans to carry a national ID card around with them.
Dreier's legislation would prohibit employers from hiring people unless the job applicants first obtain new federal ID cards with their photograph, Social Security number and an "encrypted electronic strip" with additional information. Any employer who fails to comply faces hefty fines and prison terms of up to five years.
Time to start donating to the Fire Dreier people, methinks...
