I’m actually in favor of having a biometric system like Aadhar in the United States.
We should be automating our border patrol, I cringe at how inefficient our government is. Why are we still using paper records and certificates? These government bureaucrats are literal parasites on our society.
- tekakistocracy 9y agoSo let's replace this "inefficient" human bureaucracy with the fine work of the top dollar private sector contractors that have spearheaded advanced biometrics programs like Theranos, run it as efficiently as healthcare.gov, with all this private data stored in a database as secure as that of Equifax.

- guelo 9y agoWouldn't a private government contractor also fight to maintain their contracts?
- jacquesm 9y agoTheranos is not an 'advanced biometrics program'.

I landed at Dulles on an international flight one day and the entire immigration system was down so none of the self-service kiosks or agent terminals were working creating huge backlogs. In the end US passport holders were let through with a visual passport check while all others were SOL until the system came back online.
