The ratchet strap

Today, REAL ID (mandatory for domestc flights and accessing certain FEDERAL installations starting May 7th)  (Domestic flights?   Seriously????)

Tomorrow: Digital ID for permission to access the internets?  (and they will use ‘fake information’ as the reason for that, betcha!)

I recall the whole Real ID hullaballoo back in the early Aughts and how it kept getting rolled back and rolled back.   It was inevitable to happen with the Patriot Act SNAFU, but there was still some pushback against it.

And just what does it do different that a regular ID can’t do?    Allows you do things that USED TO BE allowable under the other ID’s   Nothing different, just a way to gather up more money from the Dupes, and restrict us just a little bit more.    Another tooth of the Ratchet goes “Click!”

And there are oodles of people that don’t even have ID that are permitted to do the things that those that don’t are restricted from by the simple fact that they dress different or speak funny,,,,     EXACTLY OPPOSITE of what should be happening.  

I haven’t flown commercial since 2005.   I won’t ever again.    So long as there is a TSA, I refuse to fly commercial EVER again.   I can hop domestic private flights almost as easily, though maybe a bit more expensively, and without all the hoopla of taking off my shoes and getting anal probed or electronically scanned. (and even in 2005, I witnessed personally, three men in ‘dresses’ being waived through a TSA checkpoint because ‘that would be profiling’,,,,Seriously, With mine own two eyes,,,   And that same trip I had one of my swiss army knives (the smallest one they make for cleaning fingernails) confiscated as a weapon,,,,  WTELF is wrong with us, that we put up with such bullshit?   THAT is why I no longer am willing to ‘fly’, ANYWHERE, except on private lines.    )

The whole thing stinks to me, always has, and the more I dig into it and what its supposed to accomplish, it reeks of “encroachment” and is likely only one click of a strap they intend to tighten even further.  

And people say we are free,,,,    

We AIN’T FREE,,,, Try to leave the country permenently and find out just how far our goverment can reach out and touch you.  Rescinding citizenship isn’t even enough to escape the claws of the Rectum Stuffers now.   And thats global.    Only one man I know OF that escaped (and I don’t know him personally, so his story is suspect to me) and he went to CHINA of all places to escape,,,,, Seems a bit like ‘out of the pan, into the fire’ sort of move if you know what I mean,,,,

I’m watching things, and I ain’t gonna lie,,, it ain’t Trump, its something bigger, and its in motion and and it matters NOT who is supposedly at the helm of these ‘Untied Statz’,   I’m watching and NOT liking the direction things are moving.

and am fast ready to become an “unperson” if that is what it takes.    (read your Orwell,   there were people mentioned in the books, that big brother ignored,,,,)
