Buying a home? Prepare to pay to have your name checked

Hmmm. We have to pay now to make sure we are not terrorists? Its a good idea... BUT it does take away 30-120 dollars from your money you made. I think we have taken the Patriot Act a little bit too far here...

If you have nothing to hide then you shouldn't care.

This not only hurts the terrorist but drug dealers and any wanted criminal.This is a great thing,its one less right they have in this country.

Next we need to get the patriot act into the voting system which then would make ID's mandatory.Again it will protect the rights of law biding legal citizens of the U.S.

Peace
