khan,
 
"liberty"
 
i am sure that you know the word and can even recite a passable definition if asked to do so. but that is as far as it goes.
 
your diatribes have demonstrated quite clearly that you are nowhere close to internalizing the concept of liberty. furthermore, you have given up the process in favor of internalizing the concept of security. this is a piss-poor trade off.
 
"your social security number will always remain confidential between yourself and the social security administration for the purpose of compiling your benefit data only"
 
the above is a quote by fdr during his drive to installl social security into the framework of americn society.
 
how long did that promise last?
 
your fear of petty crime has paralized you into blindness of a far more dispicable and far more far reaching type of criminal.  in spite of the blatant and abundant evidence to this, you turn a blind eye on the truth and continue to allow yourself to be cajoled into supporting the uber crimninal. and while that criminal plays on your fears to achieve more and more control over you, you continue to feed it power as it continues to promise you security.
 
nowhrre during this process to you stop long enough to understand that "security" is and illusion and that the concept of security has only one purpose which is to keep your thought process working in fear based mode.
 

Tell me Puma why is it people of your caliber always resort to Ad Hominem attacks, instead of logic.

I make a simple but true statement of fact.

there is nothing about my "attack" that is ad hominem, there is no misdirection, no equivocation, no processing of "truth" whatsoever. my "attack is not against your person, but against your aggressive stubborness and your studied avoidance.

i have yet to see you make a statement that is either simple (as in straight forward) or has anything at all to do with truth or facts. you are blithering a socially conditioned party line and you are doing it strictly from petty fear.

KAHN SEZ:  <<< I am astonished when people say they do not want a national ID.

unbelievable.

Why should Illegal aliens, potential terrorist enjoy complete anonymity, while citizens of the United States of America are required to be easily identified, by their drivers license, their tax returns, the property  taxes, by their social security number?

as i have already stated, the true terrorists have taken the whitehouse, the bankiing system, education and the media. the above quote by fdr applies here. extrapolate.

Do you have a logical answer for this simple question Puma?

i do, and i have given it over and over, but it falls on deaf ears in your case. and in the case of all people of your caliber. i will actually define your caliber: go along to get along sheep who will willingly trade freedom for the illusion of security at the drop of a hat.

would you care to define my calliber sir? basing your definition on any evidence that i have demonstated in these boards, without resorting to an ad hominem attack of your own?

simplest answer, this boils down to a case of liberty versus "security". i choose the former hands down.
