The hunt for a perfect contraceptive has gone on for millennia. A new candidate is now on the horizon: a wireless implant that can be turned on and off with a remote control and that is designed to last up to 16 years. If it passes safety and efficacy tests, the device would be more convenient for many women because, unlike existing contraceptive implants, it can be deactivated without a trip to the clinic and an outpatient procedure, and it would last nearly half their reproductive life.
Developed by MicroCHIPS of Lexington, Massachusetts, the device will begin pre-clinical testing next year in the U.S. The goal is to have it on the market by 2018.
The device measures 20 x 20 x 7 millimeters, and it is designed to be implanted under the skin of the buttocks, upper arm, or abdomen. It dispenses 30 micrograms a day of levonorgestrel, a hormone already used in several kinds of contraceptives. Sixteen years worth of the hormone fits in tiny reservoirs on a microchip 1.5 centimeters wide inside the device. MicroCHIPS invented a hermetic titanium and platinum seal on the reservoirs containing the levonorgestrel. Passing an electric current through the seal from an internal battery melts it temporarily, allowing a small dose of the hormone to diffuse out each day.

If you control birth control, you control birth
Will Obama make it mandatory?
We're already way below ZPG: believe me, there's not future in this.
And if you control birth, you control birth control.
It gives the Socialist Left the backing to claim "we MUST import more third world persons into the UK,US, etc. to fill the gap in declining birthrates..."
The 68 revolutionaries' goal is to kill of the "native" culture (50 million dead babies in America since 1973) and import pro-Socialist immigrants.
And order variants to pump other chemicals or signals when a dissident is no longer tolerated.

Ah. So not only the woman can do this, but the doctor, via remote control ... or anybody else who can figure out the electronic on/off toggle.
But that's OK. Women's bodies basically need to be disabled.
Need I add /s/ Talk about War on Women. I hate this whole ideology: root and branch, theory and practice.
Don’t you understand that nature and female bodies are inherently badly designed to leftists? They need to be “fixed” and “controlled”.
Leftists are crazy
Perry might order it for all 12 year old girls in Texas.
Put them in those who do not pay taxes and give the remote control to those who do.
