Comments:
I personally don't understand how you can expect anyone to approve of the giving out of personal information! As a nurse, knowing all the HIPPA rules and regulations we have to abide by to protect the privacy of indiviuals, it just doesn't make any sense to make it even easier for such personal information to made redily available to persons who would use it for harmful use, ie: identity theft, false lawsuits, etc. As an American, I am proud of our country and the freedom for the persuit of happiness and that happiness happens to be the ability to work so that we can pay our bills when we might be handicapped and are still expected to pay taxes and all our bills and other expenses so as Not to be a burden to the economy in general. How is a person supposed to be able to do that without the privacy that every individual needs to be able to fight against identity theft and the like..? How can America continue to grow and prosper if her people aren't allowed to have their basic privacy issues protected? How then can we be proud to be an American when our privacy is treated as though it doesn't deserve any consideration what so ever? Please reconsider what you are proposing and see that there must be a different way to go about this. Thank you.
