Any1 believeing in the new world order? supposively obama care will lead to everyone getting the rfid chip, which will end the u.s dollar and will be how we pay for things in the future. or that aliens will touchdown on the day the world is suppose to end and take over. obama being a puppet to the illuminate. also that there is predicted to be an attack on london during the 2012 olympics causing ww3. dont want to be the crazy person on here but i do have to wonder. theres such things as the illuminate cards and other videos and theories to support my parinoia. i dont trust my government very much but i dont really want to believe all that junk because its really kinda scary..?
I think the Obamacare thing is a scare, RFID chips have been around a while. They used the Fear of losing your child for that one...

I'm surprised by both the debate over RFID (radio frequency identification) and the technology's growing capabilities. RFID has been a boon to corporations with large retail outlets, inventory rooms, warehouses, and more. It's even beginning to bleed into public spaces such as
county beaches. Yet it seems all I hear is moaning about the privacy and First Amendment implications. This is growing tiresome, and it's time to set people straight.
RFID chips are a good idea. RFID chips that can help locate people and objects are a better idea. RFID chips implanted in pets and people are the best idea of all. Let me illustrate how committed I am to this idea.
I have two children, a boy and a girl. When my son was born 12 years ago, the obstetrician asked within hours of his birth if I wanted to have him circumcised. This is a common practice for boys, so I didn't hesitate to say yes. Of course, it is a medical procedure, and in hindsight, I wish I'd thought about it for more than 35 seconds.
Now imagine a world where the doctor had, instead, asked me if I wanted my son "chipped." Here's how that conversation might have gone:
Doctor: "Mr. Ulanoff, it's a simple and virtually painless procedure."
Me: "You mean there's no cutting? No blood?"
Doctor: "Well, no. There is cutting and blood, but it's a small incision and there's very little blood."
Me: "Sounds like it'll hurt my son."
Doctor: "We use a local anesthetic, and the RFID implant will mean your child can be readily identified in the hospital."
Me: "What? Wait. Why would he need it here in the hospital? Are you telling me that babies have been stolen from here?"
Doctor: "Ahem. Er, no. But in the extremely unlikely event that your son is, uh, snatched, he would never make it through the hospital doors because his chip would be synced with your wrist bracelet. If your child left the building without you and your bracelet, which also has RFID, an alarm would sound."
Me: "Um, well, 'chipping' him seems kind of extreme for tracking him while he's in the hospital. I mean, he's only here a day and a half."
Doctor: "True, Mr. Ulanoff, but your son will benefit from the chip after he leaves the hospital, as will you and your wife. This RFID chip has GPS, a unique identifier, and near-field communication. There's even talk of adding credit card info when he turns 21, so he can shop by waving his arm over the check-out counter."
next: All that, in...my...son? >
