Are you ready to “Get Chipped”?
After the latest Snowden/PRISM/NSA turmoil I’ve noticed that some thinks it’s perfectly okay for the government to spy on their citizens, if they catch a terrorist or two in the process. The general motivation seems to be – “I have nothing to hide”.
So, it looks like some accept the loss of privacy in favor of security.
I hate stupid conspiracy theories, nonetheless – one cannot reject reality even if it seems like a “Tin Foil Hat XXL”... and few things are more powerful than fear. The next (natural?) step in government control/security might be Radio-frequency identification (RFID) implanted in humans.

I know, it sounds like science fiction/tin foil madness, but lo and behold – FDA has already (2004) approved the use of RFID chips (VeriChip) in humans.
So the question is – Are you ready to “Get Chipped”?
If you need more information; David B. Smith, Sergeant First Class (E-7) in the U.S. Army, has written a paper http://www.myimagehosting.com/u/18183/14602/126820.pdf where most is covered.
Note: There is absolutely no proof or fact saying that this will happen. This is just a poll for what might happen, and your stance on this possible future.
