"Federal ID Cards"

I say, "I have a right to my privacy
and government has no right to invade it".

Some people say, "If you have nothing to hide
why should government intrusions bother you".

I say, "It would justify the public release of just about anything:
your credit card purchases,
your telephone records,
your medical conditions and more."

The ability to invade privacy implies ownership,
and that's why most of us detest it so much.

One of the first signs of a child's growing maturity
and feeling of independence is his or her desire for privacy.

This is not an effort to hide;
it is an expression of human dignity.
