Why Not Just GPS Implants?

It's probably just a ruse to get rid of E-Verify to woo the illegal immigrant vote (more on this later), but New York Senator Charles Schumer (Far Left-N.Y.) says the current online system for checking people's eligibility to work in the U.S. is "unfair and ineffective."

That system, called E-Verify, taps into databases at the Social Security Administration and the Department of Homeland Security to check if a job applicant really is authorized to work in the U.S., either by dint of citizenship or visa. In other words, it's a frontline defense against illegal immigrants' taking legal citizens' jobs away, and against employers' gaming the system.

E-Verify, however, is staunchly opposed by stalwarts such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce (gee, I wonder what their motive is) and all Democrats except some of the Blue Dogs.

Democrats aren't really concerned about jobs (see: taxes, regulation, unionism, tort law, etc.), but--as always--about votes.

Thus E-Verify is an enemy to be swatted down and sent off into oblivion, so the illegal immigrant vote will collectively know the Democrats are on their side.

Step two of this political fox trot is to grant amnesty and eventually citizenship to the illegals, who will then be indelibly grateful to the Democrats and vote for them forever, meaning the U.S. will become virtually a one-party country (according to liberal thinking).

Now, back to my headline about GPS implants: Schumer said he prefers a biometric ID card over the "ineffective" E-Verify system.

If he has his way, soon we'll all be lining up to have a hologram of our heads made to be implanted in some kind of U.S. ID Card.

I say take all this a step closer to its logical conclusion and put little GPS tracking implants inside each of us and assign us a number for tracking.

At the same time they can hard wire the implant so it can control our voting hands; then in the voting booth our little pinkies will always punch the button for (guess who?) the Democrats.

Why fiddle with half-measures?
