Re: "microchipping included in healthcare bill" - not true

Actually, I think that it's pretty clear that chips are not in the Health Care bill.  The fact that there are five different versions of H.R. 4872 does add some confusion but if you go to the Library of Congress which tracks all bills and many other congressional matters, only version 5 was passed by congress and signed by Obama.  Yet I'm sure there will be many sites quoting version 1 as fact just to scare everyone.

I'm much more concerned about the invasion of privacy that has already been implemented, legally or illegally, by the FBI (J. Edgar Hoover was a bum who spied on anyone he wanted to), the CIA - which isn't supposed to spy domestically but obviously does, the NSA (which spies on us everyday), the Pentagon (which has also spied on us) - all of this in present time and doing it today!  We have no control over this activity and we should.  It is my opinion that an implant chip can always be refused.  I know that even if you are in a hospital and you are dying, you can refuse any service, medication, or injection that they try to foist on you.  I know, I refused a catheter that an RN was trying to force on me, and there was nothing she could do about it.  Now if they make the condition that you have to have a chip implanted in order to get medical service, that's different but I doubt they could ever enforce it.

Public cameras with face recognition software like they have in England is next.  Almost all technical progress is a two edged sword.  It can be used for beneficial objectives or destructive ones.
