We will need US government permission to travel outside US borders

Yes, Americans, there's a new proposed law by the Homeland Security Dienst, I mean Department, that will require all Americans to get government permission prior to travel outside America.

Yes, it's finally arriving, the totalitarian state. Already US citizens have been detained at the border and denied permission to reenter the country based on some government thuggery, and I do mean American born citizens.

Quote:
Details of the Department of Homeland Security Bureau of Customs and Border Protection's latest proposal to regulate international travel have been emerging. Homeland Security has asked the White House and Congress to approve a plan that would require all U.S. citizens to obtain prior approval before traveling internationally. The proposal, which has a targeted date for implementation of January 14, 2007, would require all air carriers, ships, and even commercial vessels like fishing boats to provide lists of passengers in advance to enable Homeland Security to determine if anyone on the list is blocked from entry into or exit from the United States. Something like this is already being done with air travelers, but the new program is a radical departure in that it would require that every traveler be positively cleared, whereas the current procedure only responds to "hits" and blocks a traveler if there are security concerns and he appears on a "no-fly list".
