Big Brother Watch

The founding fathers were wise.  They knew the problems of government getting too big and interfering with the lives of free men and women.  They crerated our government to limit its powers, to help ensure our freedom, personal liberties and privacy from being encroached upon. 

However, with the government growing all the time.  Plus, with technology increasing all the time it seems the founding father's idea of limited government is threatened.  With it, so are our freedoms and privacy.

The government monitoring of mail, email and phone conversations is increasing and because of the events on 9/11/2001 people seem to be accepting it. That is a dangerous and foolish thing.  In addition, there are cameras everywhere looking in on our every movement.  There have even been plans to make a national ID card mandatory that will hold in a computer chip a large amount of intimate and personal information. In fact, the RFID chip inside the card would be able to track your every move, as well.

This section will provide articles, documents and resources that will cover this subject.  Do your homework and decide for yourself.
