Money saving idea for the government

They want to make us have ID cards but there isn't a lot of money because they've wasted it. So, instead of costly ID cards and the big database and all the administration, why don't they just tattoo us? Yeah, people would be horrified and physically sickened by the idea but
1) The government doesn't care what people actually think
2) People don't seem to care enough about these things they are against to do anything about it.

Saying that, I'd do something about it. But if they want to carry on with their 1984 plan it's a thought.

Some Labour party apparatchik is probably writing it down to take to their next meeting of abolishing civil liberties.
