Our Government, Gathering Information on Us All

AS WE ALL KNOW SO VERY WELL, Obamacare has taken effect, and the government website is up and running, new and improved. Evidently, after weeks of very expensive repair work, a few Americans are now able to log onto double you double you double you dot gov, and sign up for obamacare. A few people. Better than none, maybe. The problem is this: evidently, when you log onto the official government obamacare website, just by logging on, whether you sign up or not, information about you is obtained, somehow, by the government. At least, so the rumor goes. The rumor was reported by rush Limbaugh, and he reported it is fact, not rumor. Thus it must be true! This is allegedly the intention of the feds; to use this website to gather infomation about the American people. Kinda like another version of the National Security Agency, or the FBI, or the CIA... There are now so many government agencies gathering information on and surveilling American citizens that it becomes difficult to keep them all straight. The trilion dollar question is; what information? A human being is a walking goldmine of information, so it could be almost anything. Name, age, date of birth, income level, criminal record, voting record. The list is endless. Information collection, organization, and utilization is money and power. The advertisements on many websites, including this one, are different for every visitor to the site, taylored to the specific interest of the person visiting the website. We have your information, we know who you are, and what you like. And there is nothing you can do about it. If you think about it, that is absolutely amazing, and, honestly, a little spooky. Not only does the federal government have massive amounts of information on us all, so does the corporate community. But of course, those two are, as we all know,the same thing.
