C’mon. Isn’t it time for some behavioral profiling instead of groin groping every senior citizen and toddler in America?

Brilliant thread! The most compelling thing for me was how the scanners and body searches from TSA are to mind screw people into accepting the Vchip....genius.

The same metal detectors we walk through at the airport will be reconditioned just for that.
The infrastructure is in place and has been for decades too.
When Government does one thing look for it to be something which can be redirected easily.
Dual-purpose usage is a means to branch out, change direction, or reverse direction.

I did have an interesting situation occur to me at Schiphol airport in Amsterdam this summer, that ties into this entire thread.
By a twist of timing, I hold one of the last batch of US Passports issued without an RFID chip (which I am so grateful for). When it was time for me to fly to Toulouse via KLM I had a devil of a time being able to get on my flight. At Schiphol all the KLM flights are pretty much self check-in, in which you must scan your RFID passport in the machine. It is very, very difficult to be allowed into the check-in lines which have actual desk workers. Of course, my passport wasn't going to work with these machines. I had to get approved along by four different KLM assistants by the machines before they allowed me to get into an actual assisted check in line. That in and of itself took 30 minutes, just to be let in the line. Another 90 minutes to actually get up to the desk. I explained again and again that some Americans as yet do not have RFID passports. It was a very strange experience because one or two of the KLM folks looked at my like was I was crazy.
Of course, many folks have told me I should just get a new passport, but honestly? I will happily remain RFID free until it expires in 2015.
ETA: The main reason I posted my story here, was because I think it helps to underscore the theory that we are being prodded (shoved) into an RFID society. It's clearly already happening.

"This fraud is not an aberration," charged Mr Isherwood. "This is a systemic practice in the world of derivatives. The entire system is toxic, and must be reorganised!
"The banks—including Australia's—who ordered the world's governments to deregulate the financial system over the past two decades, created derivatives to leverage all the cash flows they could parasitically siphon off of real economic activity, into exotic, toxic paper that added up to quadrillions—all to prop up their collapsing system. In some cases this type of gambling was based on methods developed in the games of poker and blackjack! (cecaust.com.au...)
"The same insanity still prevails in Australia's housing bubble: housing has been deliberately hyperinflated up to totally unaffordable levels, crushing homeowners and renters under soaring costs, but the Australian media call it 'a recovery in housing'."
In the U.S. the next stage of the real estate crash is about to hit, between a massive volume of adjustable-rate mortgages about to reset, zooming home foreclosures, and a crisis in commercial real estate delinquencies. On 13th April Morgan Stanley reported the largest private equity loss ever in commercial real estate, with a write-off of $5.4 billion of its $8.8 billion real estate funds business.
Six million U.S. households are more than 60 days delinquent in their mortgages and 4 million of them are more than 120 days delinquent, and will almost certainly lose their homes. 11-12 million households owe more mortgage debt than their house is worth. The numbers of homeless are growing, while census figures show that 10.9 per cent of American homes were completely vacant, year-round, at the end of 2009. Experts are awaiting another crash in home prices, and therefore, another crisis in mortgage securities values.
