Status: offline 		I am not interested in the METHOD of chipped.  Or even if it is supposedly "required".   I am interested to know if you will accept being chipped.

This should be one of my more interesting polls.

Your comments are encouraged.



Here is one article- tho not reflective of the entire issue.

Therefore, Class II devices are also subject to special controls in addition to the general controls of Class I devices. Special controls may include special labeling requirements, mandatory performance standards, and postmarket surveillance.[2] Devices in Class II are held to a higher level of assurance than Class I devices that they will perform as indicated and will not cause injury or harm to patient or user. Devices in this class are typically non-invasive and include x-ray machines, PACS, powered wheelchairs, infusion pumps, surgical drapes, surgical needles and suture material, acupuncture needles.

personally i see no reason to have myself chipped.

However (puts on flame retardant suit) i think it should be made available to everyone...especially our kids.
Someone that wants to grab and hurt a child might just think again, not knowing if the child is chipped or not.

I'd take the implied human rights infringement in exchange for being treated by doctors with instant access to my full records in the case of an emergency.

Yes

Irony? (Normally I'm good at this shit...)

eta: do you mean the variety of ways in which the word 'spelt' can be spelt?

Status: offline 		They are already finding out that chips in animals have a tendency to cause cancer. The only animals that don't show cancer are the ones who die from other causes before they get cancer. You would have to be insane to allow them to implant one. Especially since they have technology now that can read your finger print and identify you.

I doubt this is included the current bill that was passed, but I have no doubt it was included in their original attempts to pass the public option. This just proves how far liberals are willing to go to control the population. While conservatives stand for individual liberty, privacy, and the constitution, liberals believe in total control, government intrusion and monitoring, and to hell with the Constitution. Ultimately they will rewrite the Constitution or simply nullify it if given the chance.

I realized recently that one of the reasons liberals love big government and taxes (backdoor taxes now since Americans can't figure out what they are), is so that 20% of the population can control the other 80%. They can't do that without big brother.

Surely that's true of, like, everything? The only people that don't get cancer are the people that get polished off by something that isn't cancer...

You don't have to have a chip to get Cancer.  Some get Cancer and some do not - with or without a chip.
