The UW-Madison team conducted tests to validate the safety of RFID technology with the blood supply, demonstrating no adverse impacts, such as temperature or biochemical changes.
Eight states (Arizona, California, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and Texas) currently use biometric identification systems like retinal scans and fingerprints, but at least half a dozen more, including Pennsylvania, are currently in the initial planning stages. Florida, Maryland, Michigan, Mississippi, and South Carolina are all deciding whether to use RFID tracking for welfare and food stamp recipients.
The reasons given for the use of RFID tracking include elimination of fraud, and ease in administering the system. The evaluations of finger imaging systems conducted by six States have produced the following findings. However, only a small number of duplicate applications have been detected by finger imaging systems—approximately 1 out of every 5,000 cases.
Introducing finger scanning measures temporarily lowers caseloads, by 1 to 1.5% as existing clients refuse to comply with the requirement. The USDA isn’t sure how the public will react to having an RFID chip inserted into a hand as such devices will be perceived by many as “the mark of the beast,” and a violation of religious freedom based on the Bible’s admonition that all who take the mark of the beast are doomed to hell and who will suffer God’s wrath.

Is not going to happen, If legislation is even dared to pass congress and signed by any given president on mandatory R-chips it will be no time at all before goes to the supreme court.
Is not going to happen in our lifetime for now.
Not gonna happen to this human! Last I knew farmers tagged their livestock!
USDA employing Delphi Technique:
For those unaware of NAIS, it is a WTO program meant to override US laws and facilitate movement of (even diseased) animals across international borders for the benefit of its corporate members.
...I believe it must come something of a surprise to find out not only did we read the bills, we printed them off…went over them line by line and realized NAIS, Premises ID and the fake food safety bills were nothing less than a coup meant to destroy and overtake the agricultural system in the US, replacing it with corporate industrialized farming and concentrated animal operations. We aren't about to let that happen.
As with any unelected bureaucracy, USDA decided all on its own that NAIS, Premises ID was a done deal. Oh! The arrogance of these little agency dictators in waiting
To make sure (they thought) they could limit the commenting, limit the statements and prevent most of the audience from participating at all the USDA employs the Delphi Technique. This is the technique of dividing and conquering. Simply put, every one who attended the [sic] Harrisburg meeting was handed a folder with a colored dot on it. When the break-out sessions started……anyone attending was more than likely separated from those they came with and sent to a room with a corresponding color coding.
The break-out sessions are nothing more than the Delphi Technique revisited and a means to divide the attendees and diffuse the conversation. Who ever might be in opposition to the conclusions, policies, or programs the facilitator is advancing is quickly singled out and actively shunned.
The biggest goal of the facilitator is for him/her to be perceived as part of the group. Once this is done, the facilitator asks for ideas and opinions, leading the group carefully to the pre-determined conclusions and leaving them believing it was all their idea. Only it didn't work this time. The farmers and ranchers, the cattlemen and horse people stood their ground. The only people shunned and shut out of the meetings were the facilitators.
It would seem we are not all quite as stupid as the USDA wants to believe we are.

Unless something happens in which the general population is begging for them. You know how those pesky "terrorists" can be.

Yeah, sure.
We can't even get a National ID card, and ya'll think we are going to get chipped?

If TPTB want to tag us...then in time they will tag us. They will come up with something so devious and so insidious that we will stand in line and and fight to get the tag. Then make us think it was our idea in the first place. Who knows this may already be happening in the 3rd world countries. We want realise its BS till it's way too late....Just like all the other things thats been crammed down our throats for the last 30 years. All in the name of FREEDOM.
