I did leave off the "You can't name one right or abuse that would occur if everybody was required to have an RFID."
If you are being serious...you are utterly cluelsee.
All U.S. citizens to receive National ID card by 2008
The Real ID Act, passed by Congress and signed by President Bush on May 11, 2005, mandates that all U.S. citizens will receive a National ID card (with RFID chip) by May of 2008.
Without this National ID, you won't...
* Drive your car
* Board a plane, train, or bus
* Enter any federal building
* Open a bank account
* Hold a job
If you cant hold a job or have a bank account, how much buying and selling will you be able to do?
How about this one (that has actually happened, though I can't find the article right now):
Couple decides to divorce. Wife plays the abuse card with no evidence whatsoever that any abuse has occurred in a ploy to gain full custody of the children. Wife gets grocery store to release records of purchases (through those little club cards - the precursor to RFID) showing how much beer is bought by husband. Wife successfully convinces court that she was likely abused because husband drank (in her opinion) too much beer. Wife convinces court husband has drinking problem despite his not having ANY problems with DUIs, work, or anything connected to alcohol. Family & friends testify that he does not drink heavily or have any problems.
Court awards custody to wife.
With RFID, there is no way to make any purchase anywhere anytime that cannot be later be used against you in some way. Think: alcohol. Guns. Ammunition. ANYTHING. Your purchase can be completely innocent, it's what the government or others do with that information that is troubling. Why some fail to see that befuddles me.
This doesn't even get into the tracking your movements aspect of it..........
