The current state of the world kinda' makes one wonder whether people even have an identity anymore - or are identified as just a bank account number (except for those that don't, they're 'non-citizens'). It's certainly not the kind of world I want to live in. If people were wise and realized that they have many friends and family who are also going to be considered 'non-citizens' for whatever reason they fail to be identified by a bank number, rather than a personality, maybe we would all work harder to change the status quo. ;) (y)
