Is it criminal to allow people to buy entry into the USA with $100,000?
Zebra Question
I asked the zebra
Are you black with white stripes?
Or white with black stripes?
And the zebra asked me,
Or you good with bad habits?
Or are you bad with good habits?
Are you noisy with quiet times?
Or are you quiet with noisy times?
Are you happy with some sad days?
Or are you sad with some happy days?
Are you neat with some sloppy ways?
Or are you sloppy with some neat ways?
And on and on and on and on
And on and on he went.
I’ll never ask a zebra
About stripes
Again.
The back of a USA State Drivers licenses have a swipe strip of digital info, all Credit cards also.
I just worry about QR Code Ai availability and its 2-dimensional Barcode, what can happen with a screwy puzzle.
Ya the QR code is a screwball puzzle, thaws all. I you quickly glance at it you sort of see 6 or more vertical columns.
Is its a replacement for the magnetic strip or the code on most products in a grocery store.
Tbh I’m not bothered either way, if I have to carry a digital id that’s fine, people get so worked up over nothing nowadays, most people with smartphones have their entire lives on there and they can be hacked, instead of having two proof of ids, via bills ect, it’ll be much easier to have everything in one place, a bit like other countries do…
It’s acceptable if they really help you in everyday life and make our borders more secure as Starmer says. They’ll be optional for you and me anyway nor will they have to be carried in public, Bob.
They’re bent, the whole lot of them, and we are happy to sit by happily while they waste our money on hair brain schemes and lining their own pockets. It’s time this government was ousted.
I’m surprised how apparently intelligent members of the public have fell for the massive net zero con, the CO2 nonsense, and carbon capture idiocy. I didn’t think this country could get any worse, but with this digital ID malarky it has exceeded my expectations and it’s now up to the waste of space, woke, lefty, misguided, young people to stand up and fight for their future…Fat chance of that!
I blame our generation for being too soft, it’s time we all grew a pair!
The problem is your generation, and my generation, have allowed over-reach of the govt which has led to more and more draconian laws and power. Just look at what happened to protestors trying to stop a war, they were labelled terrorists just for spraying red paint! On top of all that, the young are the poorest they have ever been, so they are becoming more and more powerless, hence I think we are the ones that need to do something about it because we’ve slept-walked into this and future generations are going to be paying the price.
Like with most things, the real enemies, and the people to blame for pretty much everything - whether it’s the wars or extraction of wealth from foreign lands which leads to mass exodus, to the dumbing down of people through all chemical crap in food and on media - are those hoarding all of the wealth and resources, because they just want the peasants to fight amongst themselves. If people united, the world could be a much better place for all of us, not just the 1%.
I have no passport nor driving licence so always have difficulty proving who I am … based on that I might even welcome an ID card of some sort.
The government harvest information about us from so many sources already now I don’t think the threat of a draconian police state or qualms about invasion of privacy carry much weight.
Thing is … it’s the reason he’s kicking the idea about that makes most folk wonder. I don’t think we’ve ever had a PM who sounds so inept, incompetent and insincere as Starmer.
Wouldn’t surprise me in the least that when he inevitably has the ID card voted and thrown out, he says that those who voted against it who are to blame for the failure to curb irregular arrivals.
As an aside, I read earlier that when Blair was trying to get ID cards up and running in 2007ish, the estimated cost of issuing everyone with one was £5.5 billion.
You’ve got to be joking Azz…
They are more educated than at any other time in history, and have more benefits than at any other time in history. They rarely do manual labour, and don’t even have to consider working until at least 21 years of age. Neither do they have the same responsibilities as my generation had at their age, because due to their further education into adulthood, they can’t afford to buy property or even take on a family. They all have very expensive mobile phones and access to the internet though. It’s their job to take over where we left off, and I don’t consider we’ve left them that badly off. If you, and they, think we’ve done a bad job with the government, lets see if they will do any better and get on with it. Instead of being easily offended, worrying about their gender, and complaining about the horrible British Empire of the past…
