They could develop a reader which scans the chip as the person walks by and have immediate access to their bank accounts.

Really ? Wow. I now need to go and chat with my friend Google regarding this matter and see how common place they are. I suppose this is the technology used in the 'fast pay' credit cards ?

^^ And Passport ? Is there something in the Canadian passports which is readable ? (I still have a UK one as they are valid for 10 years but will replace with a Canadian once it expires).

Hard to believe this is anything but fiction.
There would be a revolution if this were attempted.

PGLZ,

The "Revolution" you refer to is an offshoot political group to unseat Obamacare, stating this is a provision of it.

Tea Party stuff............and they're believing it, of course.

Lets first say this, I am an Obama supporter 100%.

There's a pretty starling thing in the bill that 95% of Americans won't like.


The Obama Health care bill under Class II (Paragraph 1, Section B) specifically includes ‘‘(ii) a class II device that is implantable." Then on page 1004 it describes what the term "data" means in paragraph 1, section B:

14 ‘‘(B) In this paragraph, the term ‘data’ refers to in15
formation respecting a device described in paragraph (1),
16 including claims data, patient survey data, standardized
17 analytic files that allow for the pooling and analysis of
18 data from disparate data environments, electronic health
19 records, and any other data deemed appropriate by the
20 Secretary"

What exactly is a class II device that is implantable? Lets see...

Approved by the FDA, a class II implantable device is a "implantable radiofrequency
transponder system for patient identification and health information." The purpose of a class II device is to collect data in medical patients such as "claims data, patient survey data, standardized analytic files that allow for the pooling and analysis of data from disparate data environments, electronic health records, and any other data deemed appropriate by the Secretary."

This sort of device would be implanted in the majority of people who opt to become covered by the public health care option. With the reform of the private insurance companies, who charge outrageous rates, many people will switch their coverage to a more affordable insurance plan. This means the number of people who choose the public option will increase. This also means the number of people chipped will be plentiful as well. The adults who choose to have a chip implanted are the lucky (yes, lucky) ones in this case. Children who are "born in the United States who at the time of birth is not otherwise covered under acceptable coverage" will be qualified and placed into the CHIP or Children's Health Insurance Program (what a convenient name). With a name like CHIP it would seem consistent to have the chip implanted into a child. Children conceived by parents who are already covered under the public option will more than likely be implanted with a chip by the consent of the parent. Eventually everyone will be implanted with a chip. And with the price and coverage of the public option being so competitive with the private companies, the private company may not survive.

But by all means show us all where the Tea Party has stated that Obama is planning this mark of the beast health care chip because here is what I found...
