Don’t get your panties in a wad. This idea is so easy to kill by just telling the democrats that this is a great way to implement voter ID.

My credit card does the same thing. You just hold right above the card machine and it’s accepted. No implant needed.

This was inevitable. Soon it will be mandatory.

Does being required to take something into your body in order to do business in the public square ring a bell?

“No no no!

It was the barcode that was the mark of the beast!”

LOL!

Let’s face it, Brave New World is coming at us at breakneck speed.

If it can be done it will be done, whether us old curmudgeons like it or not.

Yeah I would have to agree with that unfortunately.
I do have a “soft spot” for mocking conspiracy theories however. I guess its because they often are an affront to reason. As a logic bound computer programmer I cant stand it!

I worked in a bank that installed a few ATMs around town towards the end of 1977. Customers with checking accts had debit cards mailed to them automatically with the PINs in a separate mailing.

We heard from several people that the PINs were the mark of the beast.

So no, the mark of the beast, banking wise, started back in the ‘70s.

Until such a mark signifies ideological submission as a condition then it is merely conditioning precursor. As is shortages of necessities along with increasing dependence upon the government, and which will ration its welfare, with dissidents being exposed and marked due to its overreach.

Yes, this device does not require energy from the host.

Assume that it will be blacklisted at some point.

And all transactions investigated (not at first)

But 30 years from now most of the world will be a not fun place

We’ve seen many technologies that are precursors to the mark of the beast. No one really knows what the final form will be. But it appears to me from Revelation (in the Bible) that it’s acceptance will come in 3 phases:

1. convenience, perk, status symbol, privilege, luxury
2. mandatory, for security purposes, to be able to legally buy and sell anything
3. mandatory to live; rejection will be a capital offense

Our cultural, political, and economic systems are funneling all of us to where this is headed.

Sounds like what they tried to do with gene therapy.

But they learn, and will keep trying until they have mostly success.

It’s absolutely scary how many apps from Google are offering you free money 💰💰💰 - hundreds and thousands of dollars for playing games.

Obviously scams but Google keeps pushing them.

“Problem is that data would have to be centralized...!”

You are correct.

I copied data and pictorial IDs for our health care PPO’s and our Driving stuff.

Then, I laminated them into an 8.5 X 11 for our health care and in a smaller one for driving licenses, smog crap, title info, Triple A and insurance and other vehicle stuff.

They stay at home until I/we go to our PPO for health care or when I might need the driving data, that stays in our car trunk or at home.

I have a small canvas bag to carry our health care sheets, and also the vehicle data when I leave our car.

The PPO’s receptionists, lab people and nursing staff love the one sheet for them.

Recently, my wife banged her hand on a door jam and in minutes her wedding ring finger, swelled up like a big hot dog. So we go to the local ER, and our PPO uses them for ER stuff. The receptionist at the ER checkin loved the system. In about 2 minutes my wife was checked in and headed back to an er bed.

The ER nurse got on line with our PPO and had my wife’s current medical data ready for the ER doctor to cut off the ring and got her ready to be taken care of, charged and discharged after services.

She had recently had a hip replacement and was on a lot of drugs, and the ER doc got that data in seconds for his info. He then transferred his data to my wife’s FP at the PPO and the ortho surgeon, who did her hip transplant. He assured both of them that she was stable and should not need any care for her new finger injury..

However, you are correct re there is a need for centralization of data. That isn’t a problem with our PPO, the problem is being able to go there and get the data when it is needed.

“I worked in a bank that installed a few ATMs around town towards the end of 1977.”

We moved into our current home and city in the fall of 1977.

Our bank branch here had just installed an ATM, and I/we thought that I had died and gone to heaven. We could park in our bank’s parking lot on Sunday, walk a block to our church. After church, I walked back to the bank to deposit my weeks expense check and get cash for the next week from the ATM. Going into a bank on a Monday to get cash before ATM’s was not a lot of fun.

While I did the ATM stuff, my wife would drive 2 blocks from there with our sons and go into a good grocery store to buy something for dinner and food for the next week. I would meet them in the parking lot by our car. Then, we drove home to watch the Niners or the A’s or the Giants. We often had groceries, cash and home in about 30 minutes after church.

My wife at that time preferred to write a check for our groceries and anything. So, she did that task. After a few months, she got a credit card and used it.
