Wouldn't it not only be fair but down right just that if any man or woman says that another has to do this or that, that the one making the demands must themselves have the thing done to them and all of their peers first?

 

Not that I agree that on any level is it ok to violate the will of another unless they violate you first, but I sure as heck don't believe in "do as I say and not as I do."

 

I can see a lot of good that could come from the chips; but unless it is I who says it is ok unconditionally with me for another to usurp my privacy at the cost of safety or some other reason then I challenge that the right to proceed exists.

They key word(s)..................................INCREASE REVENUE!!! It will start with the cards, and once TPTB realize that they are not stopping truancey, they will insist on implanting into the student physically. You did realize that truant officers are revenuers, didn't you? A  school loses Daily Attendence Money for every student enrolled who doesn't show...........somewhere in the neighborhood of $600/day/student.

Few are going to volunteer to have themselves or their children chipped, unless there is a compulsory social program or entitlement attached. Do you want any kind of healthcare? Chip them. Do you want EBT? Chip them. Do you want your children to be educated in a state school? Chip them. Do you want any 'free' government assistance (tuition, real-estate loans, small business loans, etc)? Chip them.

What we see here is the system testing the acceptance of RFID once again, to see how much resistance exists. This will continue until most people dont seem to mind or lack the strength to resist- and then, it will be a legislative mandate for public safety or the distribution of government benefits.
