Start putting chips in people ...

Great. So since proof requires fact lets eliminate opinion and speculation and distill what youlve said down to only what is factual.

I'm not 100 % percent sure exactly what the future holds

Ok tell me again about all the conclusive factual proof you have that the sky is falling.

[FaithIsFilth]

Of course I don't have proof for something that hasn't happened yet. If you thought I was claiming my opinion was fact, I apologise for the misunderstanding. The only thing I was claiming as fact is that the idea of RFID being the future for all of us is not a fringe idea among experts.

The idea that the sky is falling is going to be different depending on who you're talking to. Plenty of people actually like the idea of mass censorship on Google, Youtube, Twitter, Facebook, etc. I guess following in the footsteps of China isn't the end of the world. Some people can't wait for a world where we are all chipped and think it's going to be the greatest thing ever.

It's is all about the word 'chip', I am telling you. So many have seen so many sci-fi dysutopias, horror movies and shows, when they hear the word 'CHIP' the button gets on.

The chip! Dat is da chip! They're gonna get us!


If it said let's put 'ewjrıüjerıjfel' (I randomly hit the keyboard) in people, the discussion would be different. It's that simple and that stupid.

Maybe because there has been no reason to believe it will be, or is, the herald of the end times or even a negative.

Lovers of involuntary detainment ... and State action ... love what they love.  Why does the government need to be involved in everything?  Because they have our best interests at heart ;-))

Doctors, patients, family members ... no problem with that.

If you have parents etc in extreme poor health ... my sympathy of course.  You know where I am at.  And yes, some of you would prefer legal euthanasia ... but I think that shooting someone, isn't the most gentle form of euthanasia.  Sounds like Marxists executing capitalist wreckers in Stalin's time.

Said by the guy who admits ... I would like a dictatorship, as long as I am the dictator ;-)

You live in a dystopia ;-( ... and you want all the rest of us to share it.

Dictatorships exist today ... they can exist in your country too.

Keep fighting the good fight ... here in Marxist central ;-)

Yes, in China, not only chipped, but your chip is tied to your "social media" index that will allow the government to both make you use social media (or no food for you) but allow them to devise an index of anti-party behavior.  You are all slaves of Seri now ... dystopia is great, as long as it is high tech.  This is the inevitable end of techo-utopians.  A high tech dystopia.

Trump, Trump, Trump ...

I think my brother brought some of that back from Sweden, from his last visit.

It tastes pretty good. Let's put that in people.

[Baruch]

'ewjrıüjerıjfel' sounds like an unpronounceable Icelandic volcano ;-)

And I'm guessing you're not one of those people.

[Baruch]

I am totally in favor of a Stepford Wife world, but for both genders ... and Republican get to run the cyborg remote.

Of course, like in the original Westworld, nothing will ever go wrong!  They cut out the parts more like Inspector Gadget.

"Mine are fine ..." was a reply to Godzilla Sama, not you.  Yes, I respect you.  And yes, there has been pervious discussion here of elderly suicide or euthanasia.  The point of chipping ... this is for senile seniors etc and the government needs to get involved.  Well, I don't like the government getting involved in anything ... so senile seniors etc may or may not be a camel nose under the tent flap ... Fabian hell-spawn in a very old technique.  As long as chipping is voluntary ... I don't have a problem with it.

Chipping was voluntary before this law (the decision made by the guardian).  This law only provides funding, and it specifically spells out that it does not provide funding for chipping.
