TOTAL INFORMATION AWARENESS- Who Needs A Warrant?
Todays New York Times article on the Bush Administration tracking all overseas financial transactions through the security clearinghouse in Belgium came as no surprise to me. This disclosure followed the almost daily reporting on theft of confidential and identity information from every conceivable major institution operating in America that would have databases on anyone for anything- ING, Citibank, Sun Trust, Morgan Stanley, Equifax, and virtually every large citizen database has been robbed in a bizarre rash of thefts that hasn't stopped in a month of Sundays. See the chart published on www.WayneMadsenReport.com
The creepy thing about this is that no reports of catching anyone or prosecuting anyone for this have yet surfaced. This suggests something odd- and perhaps even nefarious.
Even more alarming, it been reported that ten days ago, the FTC- Federal Trade Commission that is supposed to fight identity theft itself was compromised when a laptop full of confidential information of over a thousand files was stolen. How does that happen?
I just raise the question (so no one sue me for slander)- is the fact that no one has been caught yet due to the fact that these are CIA directed efforts in conjunction with the Total Information Awareness Plan to get data on every one transversing American soil, citizen or alien, friend or foe alike? If the government has all this information they now know if you like your latte with whip, where you purchased your last tank of gas with your visa, if you got a kidney transplant in Kansas, or if you used all your cell phone minutes last month, and from which undisclosed location.
We just had hearings on the Hill this week in which Congress debated whether the Justice Department should be allowed to buy data from databanks and private vendors when it was procurred illegally. Is Gonzales happier to just pay the theives for the information than prosecute them. Its looking like Jammie time- folks look to be in bed with each other.
But you didn't hear it from me.
