What I think I hear you suggesting is just complete apathy. It seems, for this particular issue, a very anti-sovereign stance.

But we don't track the packages for weeks or months or years after they are delivered. That's the difference.

Do you want to RFID everyone that comes to the U.S. and then set up monitoring stations all across the country? Do you want everyone to report to a government office once a week?

You keep dodging the practical questions. How are you going to do this and how are you going to pay for it?
