In reference to the topic of:   RETINAL SCAN to VOTE - retina ID database

RETINAL SCAN to VOTE - retina ID database If we can retina scan cattle, we should be able to retina scan people to verify their ID when voting. Our current voting system is old and allows tampering. It needs to be updated to use 21st century technology. Retina scan, paper trail, and a copy of each individual voter's activity printed out (on location) for that voter. Let's stop the games.

 Cynpro, I tried to respond to this topic - however - the comment would not show up - so I apologize if I am doing something wrong - however with this interesting topic I would like to respond.   

 I do agree with you that it will not be long before something similar is put into place.  Not too long ago I read an article to where the Florida State Officials were looking into making it mandatory to use finger printing for actual ID for Teachers and other employment areas that had to do with children.  The reasoning for this was because too many sex offenders are getting missed and employed at the same time, including child sex offenders as well in schools. 

I would imagine that not in the near too distant future, every child that is born will end up receiving a chip implanted into them.  And in doing so - that could be used for polls - financial purposes - background checks -  passports - and so on.  It's strange to see technology come to pass as I get older - and many things talked about in Bible Study are quickly coming around.  The use of implanted chips was something predicted and actually I would think would be more reliable than finger printing and/or retinal scans. 

I imagine it won't be long before something is in place - but I dread this day - because that will be the day we as US Citizens will loose our Freedom for the sake of convenience.   How does everyone else feel about the Government being able to keep tabs on our every move for the sake of convenience?

Intresting post ! There's been mention of a National identity card as well and nothing can be done without it. Retinal scans are unique to each individual and difficult to tamper with, not so finger prints. If you're worried about being in a data base it's way too late. Not certain about chips, to assume another's identity all you would need would be some cosmetic surgery and their chip.

I agree with the finger prints not being fool proof - I also don't agree that the retinal scan can be 100% fool proof either.

Everything can be changed - however - with an implanted chip - it can be easily updated in the data banks to show the identity of each individual along with their actual DNA. One could go through an airport through security and be scanned as they walk through the security gate and a picture can appear linking the individual together. That could be the same for purchases being made as well.

With retinal scans and finger prints - it can only contain temporary information unlike an implanted digital chip.

So in thinking along the lines of how this will play out in the future - I do believe implanted data chips will be the way the Government will go all for the sake of security of our Nation while secretly taking away our freedom bit by bit.

The retinal scans record the pattern of blood vessels on the back wall of the retina, each person's is different. There are several medical procedures with laser to remove clots or leaking vessels that cloud the vision.I believe that they would leave traces. DNA usually only comes into the play after the fact, crime or paternity for example. The identity thieves, professional criminals, spies and terrorists reley on a low profile and stealth. Doubles wouldn't be in such demand if a close resemblance did't count. Just some thoughts. Intresting post again !

Truly annoyed - well I need to update this as I have found some really good people to debate with on this site - so to correct myself - it's not so annoying after all. :)
