You Are a Suspect
By WILLIAM SAFIRE
WASHINGTON — If the Homeland Security Act is not amended before passage,
here is what will happen to you:
Every purchase you make with a credit card, every magazine subscription you
buy and medical prescription you fill, every Web site you visit and e-mail
you send or receive, every academic grade you receive, every bank deposit
you make, every trip you book and every event you attend — all these
transactions and communications will go into what the Defense Department
describes as "a virtual, centralized grand database."
