Gates is insane. He's among the OCD tech loons who want everything scanned, chipped, tagged, and deposited into a database. It's much, much more than just health tracking.
It's coming. You can't fight it.

As a guy that loves to read up on history its a rather horrifying approach, especially considering how so many people view the rural folks in third world nations.

But imagine a world, where you're not allowed to get a mortgage, car loan... insurance even, without having been tattoo'd. Without having the mark of what the Bible might call, 'the beast.'

Personally, this is small potatoes to me in the ever changing environment of "privacy".
Spoken like a true victim of the State Indoctrinational System (some call it 'public education').
Sorry, but the State, which has done such a bang up job of getting things totally wrong when it comes to health - just look at the ridiculous, horrific damage they have done through things like the government sponsored/approved food pyramid that the FDA, AHA and other governmental orgs have promoted that are the cause of the obesity/diabetes/everything-else epidemic in this country.
No thanks. I reserve the Right to think - and most importantly, act - for myself.

Or read about it in the sci-fi novel This Perfect Day - just substitute 'under skin QR tattoo' for 'bracelet'...
