A modest proposal on an effective voter ID.

Voter ID, with photo is less reliable an identification thing than a bar-code tattoo, given at or very recently after birth, which then can be tracked forever unto death, in NSA data servers.

Every electronic voting machine could be given online access to NSA servers, for immediate ID validation. Also, that would entail other advantages, in terms of recording votes - if a recount is needed, or otherwise.

That's the gold standard of voter ID. Simple enough for a child to use. And they'd all have them, so there'd be no bullying or taunting over them - only if a child shows up unmarked would that happen.

Or make it a 2D code, a QR code. Make it parental choice over code type. We should be flexible. Keep the family in the decision loop. Hand or forehead would be yet another parental choice.

Then, to enforce compliance, a simple rule: Without the mark of the Beast, you cannot do commerce.

What a revelation.

Or is it just me, seeing things atop the slippery slope?
