When I was a youngling dad put his wallet on the kitchen bench one day and was talking. I picked it up and opened it. He looked at me and didn't say put it down, which meant I was cool to proceed. First I went for the cash, and counted it. But then I found a piece of folded paper and asked what is this? Dad replied, that's my drivers license.

I said one day I'll have one. I remember dad going off about having to have one. It was a long long time ago and I was just a child, but I remember him being upset that he had to have identification, I remember that clearly. Strange thing is, looking back in my memory ...that drivers license was a folded piece of paper and there was no photo.

These days? 100 points needed. A photo I.D is not enough. You need 3 forms of I.D equaling 100 points, and NOW they want to take it even further with Covid Passports?

I wonder when all is said and done if we'll be rid of all these identification methods? "Show me your papers"

Cities full of cameras. Red light cameras. Speed cameras. Pedestrian cameras. Security cameras. I.D verification systems ....all of it. Will we return to a time when we won't need any of this? Or is the future going to be a surveillance state after the Storm?
