I've known way too many people I would love to implant with this.

For health reasons, a national ID chip probably becomes a good idea here...if you frequent a bunch of places like this, how many chips do you want in your arm?

Could not the same level of service be gotten via other means? Store a photo of each customer with their account, and offer them a prox card. When they show up, if they have the card, their account will come up automatically and the staff can confirm the photo. If they forget their card, they give their name and the staff can still confirm the photo. So what's the benefit of the implant?

Dateline 2008 ... Engineers have finally tracked down the problem with the chip in Patrick O'Malley's arm. It turns out that each time Mr. O'Malley took his usual power walk past the Shamrock Pub, the brisk motion of his arm ended up buying a round for the house. Mrs. Kathleen O'Malley is still not convinced and has since filed for divorce.

You and me both.

Although, I can see where some liberal will put forth a bill mandating all bar patrons have a chip embedded to monitor blood alcohol level, and send a signal to the bartender to cut the person off if they drink to much.

Even worse, some RINO will co autho the legislation.

How about if we tatoo a barcode of our SS# on our forehead?

Revelation 13:16 Also it causes all, both small and great,
both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on
the right hand or the forehead, 17 so that no one can buy
or sell who does not have the mark, that is, the name of
the beast or the number of its name.

And they think the credit card company's are a beast?
Wait till they try this one.
And yet the fools do it.
The road to slavery.

When one is compelled to get an implant to facilitate their drinking, I think it's time to evaluate the drinking, not the implant.

I don't think so. The Mark of the beast will be knowingly accepted by those that are openly at war with God. It will not be something that is deceptively imposed on the lesser informed Christian. My 2¢

that may be true, but i'm still very uncomfortable about an implanted chip for buying and selling.

I have to agree otherwise we may have already taken the mark with the SS#. Plus it is given to children when they are born.

So when it does come what will happen to children with parents who implant one in them at a early age to find them when they are kidnapped or for medical reasons.

The world is going to become a much more dangerous place including the USA. All the illegals and the muslims who are in a holy war against all of us all the time will become more bold. America will resemble Mexico where cops and politicians can and will be bribed easily. Kidnappings will become a "easy" way for third world thugs to obtain money. We are headed down a dangerous path.
