The National Council on Identity Policy Home Page The National Council on Identity Policy (NCIDP) was born of the struggles of one tenacious survivor of domestic violence and stalking. The NCIDP continues her work with the help of many. Read more about the NCIDP... ~ The NCIDP in 2010: "Get with it, and get to it, Mr. President". (Firewire News) – As the the National Council on Identity Policy (NCIDP) works forward into and through 2010, its 15th year of fighting terrorism, it would like President Obama to hear: "You are failing us, Mr. Obama! "You are failing us – we who hoped for better, who hoped for change, who hoped for an end to the violence that takes OUR lives every day. We who strive to survive violence, and whose lives are callously and criminally tossed aside and ENDED by YOUR people, YOUR agents, YOUR representatives across OUR executive branch. "You are failing us, Mr. Obama, as you let those who act in YOUR NAME continue the murderous onslaught of vile, corrupt violence upon we whose lives depend upon RESPECT for the law, our privacy, and our humanity. "YOU are failing us, Mr Obama, and every life lost to those violent terrorist infiltrators since January 20th, 2009 is blood dripping from YOUR hands. We who heard YOUR words that January day in 2009; words of responsibility and accountability of OUR government TO US; words of hope that the systematic destruction of human lives and personal safety at the hands of YOUR agents would end. We whose very own perpetrators YOU permit to act in YOUR NAME. "We heard your words, Mr. Obama, and you are failing us, and your promises of THAT DAY ring hollow TODAY."
Even now, as Firewire News goes to press, the announcement has arrived that "Healthcare Reform" has passed the legislature - legislation that was hailed by Obama: "Whether or not you have health insurance right now, the reforms we seek will bring stability and security that you don't have today." ONLY true IF prohibitions on exchanges of personally identifiable information in the provision of healthcare THAT ALREADY EXIST IN LAW are actually and aggressively enforced, and in no way undermined. ONLY true IF the current "Healthcare Reform" legislation stiffens those privacy provisions, those prohibitions, and further empowers individuals to prohibit disclosure and access to their own information; if it further empowers people to protect their own most valuable possession, their identity information, all that describes them as individuals. At present, the contents of that just-enacted "Healthcare Reform" remain a secret, kept from the public.
When a group of IRS agents "peeked" at the tax files of then-candidates Obama and Clinton, this was not surprising, or even unexpected, news at the NCIDP or Firewire News. Was there, in fact, a single American that was surprised? Indeed, the only surprise in it was that they were caught, and that it was reported – and it was only reported because the victims were high-profile, public figures. This exact same thing happens EVERY SINGLE DAY, THOUSANDS of times a day, all across the nation. Except, most of the time, the "peeking" is far less than idle curiosity: MOST such intrusions are malicious, and, indeed by definition of law AND human decency (Keeble v Hickeringill (QB, 1707)) are a violent assault. Innumerable lives are lost EVERY DAY to the homicidal perpetrators among those doing that "peeking". Those IRS agents that "peeked" did do violent assault to Obama and Clinton – AND to the nation. There is no greater crime than a crime of corruption. It's no secret that, in the process of "peeking", these agents committed NUMEROUS felonies. They collectively violated both Obama's and Clinton's right to privacy, two felony counts under 18 U.S.C. § 241. They did so making fraudulent use of and access to identity information, another two felony counts under 18 U.S.C. § 1028. They did it electronically, committing another four felony counts, two each under 18 U.S.C. § 1028A and 18 U.S.C. § 1343. Having stolen that information, these agents received stolen goods, racking up two more counts under 18 U.S.C. § 2315. Actually, this goes on, with a number of additional felony crimes committed, but so lightly described as "peeking". Just these enumerated here, however, mean that each of those three IRS agents is eligible for 57 years in Federal prison. Yet, there has never been raised, at least not publicly, any consideration of pressing these charges against those IRS agents for committing these violent felony crimes
It is precisely BECAUSE these criminal violent felonies are GROSSLY underenforced that it happens so frequently, even commonly, and is so easily the instrument of death for those whose lives are in jeopardy. It is because these IRS agents haven't been sent to those Federal prisons that the lives of innocent victims are lost EVERY SINGLE DAY. It is also because of lack of enforcement of these laws that the identity theft industry has legs.
Nowhere does it seem that access to information more directly jeopardize innocent lives, the lives of those surviving violence, than in healthcare: if a woman surviving violence cannot safely go to a doctor to be treated for the injuries of her abuse, or even for routine examinations that might discover hidden injuries from earlier abuse, she is doomed by that internal bleeding or creeping brain injury. If she cannot turn to healthcare professionals and be treated with respect, be treated with respect for her need for utter privacy, her need to control the access and flow of her identity information [Survivor's IIULA], she is doomed by the trail that her perpetrator will follow, will hunt her down by, will use to find and kill her. Yet, we are already in an era when those very providers, purporting to specifically offer safety and services to those surviving violence, commit criminal violence themselves upon those vulnerable clientele: declaring proudly, on tape, "We are terrorists... we own this town... nothing [anyone] can do to expose us will stop us... we can always make it look like [the victims'] fault". Words of "helping professionals"? Hardly. Narcissistic sociopaths, maybe, but nothing of a "helping" kind, or health "care", whatsoever.
Obama, in praising the healthcare reform act, went on to proclaim, "This isn't about politics. This is about people's lives. This is about people's businesses. This is about our future." It IS "about people's lives": truer words have never been spoken. The victims of violence attempting to escape a homicidal perpetrator HAVE no future if "NO!" doesn't mean "NO!" to healthcare providers and health insurers. And no business is a more personal and private business than a person's own personal identity, which includes ALL that describes that person, not least of which is their medical information. [IIULA] "Healthcare Reform" could, for such victims, be called "Homicide Maximization" or "Terrorist Empowerment" if, in any way, it increases the trade of information about such victims, or increases any provider's sense of entitlement to information about such victims. Indeed, if it fails to directly acknowledge and honor the fact that identity information is the private personal property of the individual it describes, and fails to directly empower individuals in controlling their own property as such, then "Healthcare Reform" is already a gross failure, destructive to lives at risk. [IIULA]
For most of the 15 years that the NCIDP has been at work, it and its members have been confronting the fact that Medicare is committing EXACTLY these same violent felony crimes perpetrated by those IRS agents EVERY SINGLE TIME that Medicare communicates with a healthcare provider: Medicare prints people's private Social Security Account Number on the face of every Medicare card, illegally violating the Medicare beneficiaries right (18 U.S.C. § 241) to PROHIBIT healthcare providers from possessing or accessing that private identity information (18 U.S.C. § 1028). Fatal to many who otherwise might have survived their violence. Moreover, since this criminal endeavor transpires between different organizations (the IRS incident apparently occurred entirely within the IRS itself), the Medicare perpetrations comprise a great many MORE violent felonies. Violent felonies including, for example: 26 U.S.C. § 7213 [pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405]; 42 U.S.C. § 1320d–6; 18 U.S.C. § 1001 [in cases where "consent" to "voluntary disclosure" was claimed to have been obtained/was extorted]; 18 U.S.C. § 1347; 18 U.S.C. § 1951 [extortion: Medicare illegally threatens to refuse reimbursements if patients exercise their rights to prohibit use of their SSN by providers, and providers threaten to illegally withhold services to patients who exercise this right (the only option LEGALLY available to providers with patients protecting their privacy and SSN is to provide the services fully, then file a lawsuit against Medicare to be reimbursed WITHOUT use of any SSN data)]; 18 U.S.C. § 1957 [in cases where Medicare actually dispersed funds to medical providers in exchange for receiving a stolen (forced consent/extorted) SSN]; as well, of course, as RICO (18 U.S.C. §§ 1961-1968).
Lack of enforcement of these laws, letting those IRS agents off the hook for their violent felony crimes, has killed millions more innocent American people than every OTHER terrorist attack in modern American history combined. These IRS agents, and every other agent of Obama with blood dripping from their hands, act in Obama's name and leave blood dripping from Obama's hands, but they serve only the cause of tyranny and terrorism – whether they call Mr. Bin Laden or Mr. Kim for specific instructions, or not. Adds the NCIDP, "Issue a stern executive order, Mr. President, and issue it now: 'NO means NO, and no threats of violence, no extortions of identity information, no threat to withhold services or benefits, shall be tolerated from ANYONE subject to the Privacy Act under ANY circumstance to anyone exercising their right to privacy; NO imposition of disclosures as mandatory shall be feigned by executive authority; and EVERY instance of disclosure of ANY PART of ANY "Social Security Account Number related record", defined by 42 U.S.C. § 405(c)(2)(C)(viii) to mean ANY record containing a SSN or associated with ANY solicitation (acquisition or acquisition effort from ANY source), SHALL BE PROSECUTED FULLY pursuant to 26 U.S.C. § 7213 as proscribed by 42 U.S.C. § 405, and thus in violation of the law, further prosecuted under 18 U.S.C. § 1028, 18 U.S.C. §§ 241 and/or 242, and every other felony statute that may be applicable. ALL records previously obtained by such violent means shall be returned, in toto, to the owners of that information described by that information, or destroyed wherever that owner cannot be located; no party subject to the Privacy Act shall retain any such information or data. The United States Attorneys' are hereby ordered to prosecute these violent crimes against the people of and within the United States aggressively.' "Do it, Mr. Obama – today; for if you don't, tomorrow the blood of more victims will be dripping anew from your hands. Do it, Mr. Obama - put the meat back into the words, the promise, that you gave us at your inauguration." It is time to take on terrorism where it lies closest to home, where it does the most damage, where it takes lives every single day. The power to do so already lies fully with President Barack Obama.
We at the NCIDP are an organization of, about, by, and for survivors of violence. We have developed expertise on the subject of the care and control of personal identity information to the end that it empowers us to survive our perpetrators. We have only stumbled upon active, operating "enemies of freedom" by accident, and it was much to our shocked and terrorized astonishment and heartache. We've been at this work since 1995, before much public awareness or concern about "identity theft". We guarantee that the subsequent epidemic of identity theft would not have happened and unfolded in the manner that it did if existing laws and identity protections were enforced consistently and appropriately. We believe that it's long overdue for U.S. Attorneys nationwide to protect lives and enforce the laws in these matters and manners that we discuss here – that we have discussed for more than a decade. Federal prosecutors could have prevented the identity theft epidemic from ever happening simply by prosecuting these existing laws consistently, as we discuss.
The usual cautionary note: we are only disclosing facts of law and propriety here, not providing legal advice to you in your particular circumstances. An additional cautionary note for other survivors of violence: read the NCIDP case studies, become informed of the reperpetrations that you may expect while enforcing your basic rights to survive with those who purport to offer you aid and assistance – too many of them are dangerous, homicidal perpetrators in their own right.
Finally, on another note and as a teaser: if anyone, from your banker or car dealer to your local, neighborhood public servant claims that the Patriot Act (P.L. 107-56) requires that you give to them your social security number [to obtain whatever product or service you are seeking], they are violating 18 U.S.C. § 1028 (Identity Fraud) and 18 U.S.C. § 242 (Deprivation of Civil Rights Under Color of Authority) - and that only begins the list of felony crimes that you have just become the victim of.
