Subject: hazmat drivers and Lockheed Martin computers

Thurs I had a client who is a truck driver. He informed me that there was a NEW licensing
procure and background check for HAZMAT drivers, which was implemented as part of
"war on terror/patriot act". He wanted me to walk him thru system.

I went to Transportation Security Administration website and found that they had "licensed"
a private commercial party, IBT, to do the work.

I called IBT and was avised that I should return to TSA website and complete application
there for my client. That site requires ALL background info...birthdate, SS#, education,
DL number..marriages..divorce...convictions...children...etc etc

I was further advised that as soon a s we inputed info in TSA website it was automatically
registered on IBT's computers. Whe I made inquiry about "IBT's computers", I was advised,
"yes...at our computers at Lockheed-Martin"

That means that our national security, at least that sector concerned with "HaZARDOUS Materials",
is being handled NOT by people responsible to the citizenry at elections, but rather is
being entrusted to the biggest defense contractor ( planes, rockets, missles, weapons-systems,
star-wars defense programs) in the world, which is only answerable to its stockholders.
Of course their goal is the bottom line, profits, NOT national security.

LOCKHEED MARTIN is a MAJOR campaign Contributor to BOTH major political parties.

I think the website is www.hazmat.org or .com if you want to confirm my TRUE story!
