Despite MASSIVE Data Collecting Efforts – PRISM Can’t Find 6 Million Illegals
[HotAir] Not only do we know that the National Security Agency (NSA) collects information from emails and telephone calls, not only is the United States government spying on everyone, but it is keeping some 20 billion records on Americans alone and millions of others on Internet users across the world. According to journalist Glenn Greenwald, “The NSA sucks up into its systems billions and billions of communication activities every week—billions and billions. In fact, the data-mining documents that we published reflected it sucks up 90 billion in a 30-day period, including three billion in the United States.”
If we could only fuse the massive "megadatas" with biometric data such as foto's of the Tsarnaev bros, or prior criminal arrest histories. Just think of the time that could have been saved the FBI.
Despite this, at the same time the US government can’t find nearly 6 million potential democrats illegal immigrants.
In 2011 Judicial Watch reported:

Almost a decade after Middle Eastern terrorists with expired visas attacked the U.S., the government has failed to implement a security measure to adequately track foreigners like them who enter the country legally but never leave.
But, but, but if we give them free fones and access to our gummit controlled towers providers....
As a result nearly half of the nation’s estimated 12 million illegal immigrants actually entered the U.S. legally but overstayed their visa, according to a new federal report. That’s because the agency responsible for keeping the nation safe—the Department of Homeland Security—can’t keep track of immigrants who remain in the U.S. after their visas expire.
Do visas contain "megadatas" ?
This clearly creates a huge national security issue because terrorists can plot more attacks from within. In fact, dozens of foreigners convicted of terrorism since the 2001 attacks had overstayed their visas, according to the report, which was published by the investigative arm of Congress known as the Government Accountability Office (GAO).

The GAO launched its probe after learning from an independent study that 4 to 5.5 million potential democrats immigrants had entered the country legally and overstayed their authorized periods of admission. In the course of the probe, GAO investigators interviewed a number of high-ranking Homeland Security officials, visited various field offices and reviewed a mountain of documents. They found that the Department of Homeland Security’s program to identify visa violators by comparing entry and exit data is inefficient and can only process around half of the potential overstays it detects.
An "inefficient" gummit process you say? New computers and more gummit workers needed ?
But, at least they have your email and megadatas on file.

#1 Silly fools.

It isn't designed to find illegals. Just enemies of the state. Aka tea party members and those wanting smaller government.
