Default Re: Scanning Your TV ID card.

Hopefully most of you have worked most of your life. Almost all businesses of any size require you to have an employee ID badge. Most with your picture on it. Many places require that the badge be swiped in order to enter the premises. Many require a badge, picture, swipe and a pin code to enter. This is not really any different.

Every month you pay a fee to have these facilities available for your use. If people who don't pay the monthly fee also utilize them, then at some point your monthly fee will go up in order to cover their cost of use. At some point your residence card will probably have a picture ID and a card swipe in order to use rec centers, pools, and wouldn't it be nice if also the town squares. Perhaps if that was so, New Years Eve would have worked out just fine.

Unfortunately every where you go their are people who try to beat the system and get something for nothing. Having ID cards, badges, etc. is one way to help solve that problem. The technology already works very well where you have thumb print scanners that read your print and sense the temperature (just to make sure someone didn't cut off your thumb) to enter buildings. And this technology cost is coming down fast and is pretty fool proof. Then you don't even need ID's or pictures.
