Wired magazine wrote about a national database that includes traffic, law enforcement, and social security information, addresses, professional licenses, names of neighbors and relatives, and even domain-name registration filings and hunting licenses.
Very few states want any part of it. Unfortunately, and contrary to Wisconsin's great / older political heritage, Wisconsin is one state that has signed on.
Yea, that sounds good, a bigger more intursive government. Been working so far hasn't it? I can about imagine the civil servant poking around people's information. Make you feel warm and cozy don't it?

Old post but people everywhere need to be concerned about their privacy.. look at the recent hub-bub over at facebook over privacy issues..
"May 11, 2010, LA CROSSE - At Gundersen Lutheran in La Crosse today, Governor Jim Doyle signed into law 10 bills, including important electronic medical record legislation. Assembly Bill 779, the WIRED for Health Act, will strengthen the ability of Wisconsin health care providers to securely share electronic patient data in order to avoid duplicative tests, improve health outcomes, and decrease costs."
But don't worry, with the government in charge, your privacy is assured.
