In an era where Americans will have commercial operations at six key ports operated by Dubai Ports World, their future passports will be issued from a contractor for the China secret police.

US courts forced the U.S. government to allow OTI in on the USA biometric `epassport' program just weeks ago. OTI is the contractor for China secret police for the biometric ID card now coming online, (www.smartcardalliance.org./newsletter/April 2003.cfm).

That means that the same company that works for the China secret police will have a role in providing all U.S. citizens with their future passports—by court order.

National ID smart cards, already at work in China, are used to spy on students.

According to American Banker online, "Chinese officials who administer a graduate school admissions exam are using China's national ID smart cards and contactless terminals to identify test takers.

2. You know, Homeland Sec. Dpt. won't take a check with a passport for ID.

It's true. I needed to give a check to the INS, a subdivision of Homeland Security, and on its official instructions said that a personal check needed a passport AND some other form of ID.

Yeah, they'll let anyone in the country with a passport, but when it comes to taking a $600 check, that's too important for someone with only a passport. So America's security is worth somewhere around $600.

No, I would also need an SS card, which, of course, says it's NOT to be used for identification right on it.

Having lost my SS card twenty years ago, I went and got a replacement. I had to show ID at the SS office. Guess what they accepted as ID without question?

All it takes is one tour around a factory in one of the industrial provinces and they are sold. 19th century visions sparkle like diamonds in their eyes.

But it's not the past, it's the future.
