Complete Surveillance Systems Have Become a Hotly Debated Topic Since the 9/11 Attacks, but the Loss of Our Privacy Right is Too High a Price for the Pretense of Safety.

---

We hear a lot abou complete surveillance systems these days, especially since 9/11, It’s a way to keep closer tabs on terrorists and other criminal elements.

Many Americans feel it sounds like a great idea if it does indeed make us safer.

After all, we’re being protected, right? Maybe, but what you need to think about is this are we becoming a police state?

The trouble is that when Big Brother is watching the criminal element, Big Brother is also watching you, your friends, your family, your co-workers and anyone who crosses the paths of these complete surveillance systems.

Where does freedom end, and when do we become a true police state?

How would you feel if someone was watching you every day, all day long, no matter where you were in the city, no matter where you went, and no matter what you were doing?

Consider this: The government would have you believe we are not a police state, and that we live in a free world.

But if your every move is being filmed somewhere in the city using surveillance systems, is your privacy not being invaded?

Are your rights to freedom coming into question, and do you think this is what the forefathers of our great country had in mind?

What is to Much Surveillance?

Where will the surveillance end? Are we headed down a slippery slope from which there is no return?

What’s next? RFID tracking? RFID chips aren’t new, they’ve been around since the late 1960’s, and in recent years, they’ve been placed in all kinds of consumer goods, creating a balance between privacy and security.

But it wouldn’t take much to tip the scale, turning these chips into complete surveillance systems.

They could be encoded in all important documents, revealing everything about you, or they could even be implanted in you.

That’s just one type of technology that can be used in the name of terrorism and protecting you.

9/11 where are We Going?

If one were to step back and have a look at where we’ve been since 9/11, we would see that there has been a lot of fear mongering taking place.

In fact, many believe that the Bush administration actually paralleled Nazi Germany with citizens spying on each other, all in the name of protecting their country.

His recent Neighborhood Watch Program is a perfect example of using the general population as spies in an effort to track every move a person makes.

When fear is set into the population so deeply that citizens are constantly in distrust, you have created a police state.

The new administration with President Obama may look at these issues differently, and perhaps there is still hope for America.

Homeland Security has been working hard with law enforcement to watch and analyze the masses using a variety of tools including surveillance.

Each of the U.S. military divisions is also said to be spying on its own law abiding citizens.

When we wage the next great debate about the benefits of complete surveillance systems, it just might be the right time to show the other side of that coin.
