“Any citizen wanting to take a job would face the regulation that his or her digitized high-resolution passport or driver’s license photo be collected and stored centrally in a Department of Homeland Security Citizenship and Immigration Services database. The pictures in the national database would then need to be matched against the job applicant’s government-issued ‘enhanced’ ID card, using a Homeland Security-mandated facial-recognition ‘photo tool.’ Only when those systems worked perfectly could the new hire take the job.”
