But isn't being hassled by security the biggest complaint here? It wouldn't happen with these measures of identification. What would be the problem of a background check? If you pay taxes or have a drivers license they know more than enough about you. Why not a little more?</font>
Do a search of the forum for 'trusted traveler' and you will find that this has also been discussed and some of us aren't real keen on that program either. Actually, you could have done a search on the web first and found a nicely related news story to link to making this thread appropriate for this forum.
My biggest complaint isn't being hassled actually. Mine is the waste of time and resources to accomplish zilch while bigger areas of concern are left unchecked. I can tell you though, there is no way in hell anyone is implanting a microchip in my body, most especially the government.
