#   Ontario, Canada: Each newborn infant will now receive an ID number at
#   birth and a plastic ID card to go with it.

#   Privacy Journal, By Robert Ellis Smith, September 1991 issue
#
#   A California taxpayer has successfully filed a tax return without
#   providing Social Security numbers for her three children, as required
#   by a 1986 federal law, but the IRS is quite happy if nobody knows about
#   the case.
#
#   The woman claims that the enumeration is a violation of her religious
#   beliefs. Like many fundamental Christians, she relies on a Biblical
#   passage warning that whoever worships a Satanic beast that issues a mark
#   OR NUMBER to all persons will incur the wrath of God.
#
#   Initially, the IRS disallowed her claims and child care deductions.
#
#   The woman claimed that just because she didn't provide numbers for her
#   children did not mean that the children did not exist. An appeals officer
#   agreed and overruled the auditor, saying that there was no deficiency
#   in the woman's tax return.

if the officer spots marijuana plants growing to get a search warrant?

Of course it is.
