The powers to be have knowledge of the future and a written agenda,why do you think they are stockpiling food,water,when the US is devastated and these said items are rationed out,they will require a identification that can't be altered thus requiring a tattoo of your bar code number ,now does that sound fictional?

There is more to it than that, you will be given the choice to conform to a system and the individual responsible or put to death... The mark will be an actual symbol of your acceptance and subservience to this individual and also your separation from God by choice...
the Greek word for mark is "charagma" which means "to engrave, a scratch, etching, stamp".
What about biometrics identification and thermograms? Some have suggested biometrics, themograms, or bodily ID systems, such as iris scans, fingerprints, voice patterns, facial features, etc. as the mark of the beast. Besides the obvious reasons mentioned earlier, biometrics ID could not be the mark of the beast because the mark of the beast is something you "receive". An iris scan, voice scans, fingerprints, biometrics are NOT something you receive. It's simply part of a person's bodily features. In this case, every one would "have" the "mark".
