So they don't ask where you are staying and what your visa history is-- but they do make you pay $$, right?

This whole ESTA thing seems so stupid to me because we have demonstrated such an inability to use in a useful manner any watchlist that we might have.

And as far as past visa history, they should know that already, they shouldn't have to ask! (Unless they mean non-US visa history, too).
