RFID Chips...

All an RFID is is a tiny thing that sends out a signal. All it does is tell whatever is reading the signal what ever information it is set to give out. Some credit cards have them, they use them in the swipe pay to try and save time.

I had a big discussion on it in class a few years ago. It is a double edged sword really. It can contain your blood type and allergies, maybe some more information. Which can save your life in the long run. However other information may be on it, more private information, and anyone with a scanner could access it. If it got to the point of having one, why not? Just waiting for mechanized suits and cybernetics.

What do you mean why not? No offense but no one should be forced to have something inserted in them they don't want. It's wrong to me. If others want it, cool...but like I said, I wouldn't take it because it's my own personal choice. :/

So two bits on the RFID chips being mandatory on Obamacare. One, the bill passed into law is actually HR 3590, not HR 3000. Second, the passage in HR 3000 that is cited actually refers to the creation of a database of medical devices used in or on patients so that the department of health and human services can monitor the effectiveness of the devices and facilitate the distribution of recall notices. Nothing in any form of the bill, past or present, has any language about mandatory chip implanting. This is just one of many propaganda stories that feed on people's fear of big brother. Which a lot of people fall for because they don't understand what the Affordable Care Act is nor how healthcare is run in this country. Of which the latter may be helped with the passage of Obamacare since it requires that all insurance plans must be in layman terms so that the consumer understands without a doubt what is and isn't covered under his plan. Also in V for Vendetta, wasn't the government system totalitarian? The most I've heard criticizing the current regime was Communism and only in the aspects of socialism. Not quite the same thing.

The government of the United States could not pass a bill to make something like implanting a chip required. Judicial Review would decline the bill due to the term being "mandatory". Besides, we live in a society that we can sue if our coffee is too hot, so don't worry about it. Propaganda or not we aren't going to get a great president till they stop thinking about blue and red, and think about purple.

I wouldn't say that it's that easy to sue someone for trivial things, but I will say that in this country, we're more prone to threaten to sue for trivial things. :P The problem with government isn't so much the president because that's only one branch of government. The issue is that the country is split so far apart in the platforms for liberal and conservative. It doesn't help that much of the country is not knowledgable with how the government works much less the current going ons of their own government. There's so much misinformation floating around that gets recirculated again and again no matter how much it's debunked like the so called 28th amendment proposal and what not. While I agree that both parties need to be open to compromise and not treat the country as a fight for king of the playground but at the same time, citizens need to have a responsibility to know how their country is run

I agree, but people aren't going to go the extra mile unless they are going for a government job most of the time. We also need to step up education and get out of the "don't care in first place" attitude.
