ObamaCare’s Data Hub Will Destroy Privacy
Seton Motley, President of Less Government, catalogues in blistering fashion why ObamaCare’s Federal Data Hub – a database designed to link all of the personal medical and financial information held by the states and federal government – may not be a good idea:
The government spies on reporters. And their parents.
The government collects phone call data on hundreds of millions of Americans. It allows thousands of National Security Administration (NSA) analysts to listen to them at their individual discretion. These same analysts can also read our emails, texts and Instant Messages, and watch our video chats. The government is working with many of the largest Internet companies to take possession of much of the information they have on us.
The government uses our data to sic the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on opponents, inhibits select political organizations from forming or gaining approval, then releases damaging information on and audits anyone not with the big government program.
With this as its track record, how in the world can Americans trust the government to protect some of our most precious personal information and refrain from abusing it?
Better to pull the plug on the Hub and the law that mandates its existence.
