Big Brother in Your Dashboard

In Sacramento, they are scheming of ways to put a camera in your car. It is supposedly for safety and to learn about accidents. But if that’s needed, it should be up to the owner of the car, as the ACLU says in its timid qualified critique. However, if the driver can own the car camera, why can’t he choose not to buy a car with one of these cameras in the first place? Why can’t the auto companies and their customers decide? If it’s truly for safety, leave it up to the market. But this is just another excuse for the government to pry into our lives, in this case in a very intimate way.

To deny someone liberty, excluding for punishment for property infringement, is to proceed toward a gradual tyranny that can tell others what to read, what to watch, what to eat, what to wear, and who to have sex with. Limited liberty is limited slavery. – Viception (http://viception.wordpress.com) Now we are slaves who are to be monitored while driving.

It’s coming, get used to it. Remember when there was actual debate over those cameras that now decorate nearly each and every traffic light in America. Why are we even discussing this? We have proven long ago that as long as we have 138 channels of reality TV, Big Brother can do whatever he wants.
