With the influx of 30 million illegal aliens, larger numbers on welfare and foodstamps, and imagine a government that says,
"With all the fraud and such large numbers, for security and safety, we will require all people on entitlement programs to be chipped."
And there is your line!

My dogs are chipped. Its handy if they get lost so they can check them see where they live but, its not like they can be tracked or anything. You have to take them to a place like the vets that can scan them. Of course they have have no power and so they can not broadcast unless they placed near a scanner and that provides the power. So they do have some limited use.

No adverse impacts such temperature, or biochemical changes indicates though vague for now, they will be putting the RFID's in direct contact with the blood, which means in the blood and/or in the recipient - an initial framework of approval where the scope could be expanded with future broadened regulations and easier approvals of even more invasive uses.
Aside from the FDA, we also have the USDA is now considering biometric identification, and the RFID chip, for all individuals (1/3 population and growing) on Food Stamps and other public/government services:

You will find that faith to have been misplaced, as all will who trust in anyway such a corrupt system to protect them from the corrupt system.
It used to be that after the screening was completed the blood spots were destroyed. Not anymore. Today it is increasingly common for states to hold onto these samples for years, even permanently. Some states also use the samples for unrelated purposes, such as in scientific research, and give access to the samples to others....

The chips will be tested in patients with chronic conditions who are more likely to need care in hospital emergency rooms. In the two-year trial, the insurance company will pay about $200 for the chips to be implanted, plus $80 a month for a subscription fee, according to reports in the RFID Journal. Horizon will then assess whether the devices lower health care costs by reducing duplicate lab tests, drug interactions or misdiagnoses. Horizon will invite patients with conditions like diabetes and heart disease to participate and hopes to enroll about 300 volunteers.
Though non-implanted devices, like bracelets or dog tags, could also provide the identifying numbers, chip proponents said that the implanted tags are less likely to be removed or damaged and that scanning for implants will take less time than looking for other means of identification. Earlier this year, four hospitals in Puerto Rico announced plans to implant chips in patients with Alzheimers Disease and other memory problems. VeriChip has given several New Jersey hospitals—Beth Israel, Clara Maass, Columbus, Hackensack, Kimball, Newark, Ocean and PBI Regional—equipment to read the chips and access the companys database. Across the country, about 100 hospitals have the appropriate scanning equipment, according to VeriChip. The chip, about the size of a grain of rice, was approved by the FDA as a medical device in 2004.....
The “Obamacare” RFID chips are currently being given a test run on the proud and patriotic citizens of Hanna, Wyoming.
Over the last two weeks a special piece of legislation has been passed making it mandatory for anyone who receives welfare, or any other form of government assistance to be implanted with these new identification chips. Even select government employees and officials have been ordered to receive the new sub-dermal device, which is typically implanted in the fatty tissue of the individual’s buttock. Police officers, military, even garbage men will all be required to have the RFID chip by the end of next month or face termination from their jobs.

Yeah, sure.
We can't even get a National ID card, and ya'll think we are going to get chipped?
So why the never ending push for it, you can't use one government overstep of bounds failure to dismiss that the attempts are all there.
Perry Stone confirmed this info that the RFID chip medical device will be fully implemented world wide by end of 2017. Also Congressman Ron Paul on Fox News confirmed the RFID micro chip is implantable. Brian Williams of NBC reported it could be implanted world wide by 2017.
BREAKING UPDATE: Congress has delayed the implementation of the RFID microchip until the description from the Secretary of Health and Human Services is fully ready to implement the Chip or Patient Identifier is ready no later than December 31, 2017.Perry Stone confirmed this info that the RFID chip medical device will be fully implemented world wide by end of 2017.

Why not, especially when the former is far less intrusive than the latter. If we can't get a National ID card through the Congress, what makes you or anyone think that an advanced form of the same concept is going to be implemented?

if you have a valid driver license, you have a national id.
what do you think the real id was about.
REAL ID Actedit on 21-10-2013 by hounddoghowlie because: (no reason given)
Federally mandated standards for state driver's licenses or ID cards Driver's license implications The REAL ID Act's implications for driver's licenses and ID cards is detailed in Title II of the Act. Title II of REAL ID – “Improved Security for Driver’s License and Personal Identification Cards” – repeals the driver's licenses provisions of the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act,[14] also known as the "9/11 Commission Implementation Act of 2004", that was enacted in December 2004. Section 7212 of that law established a cooperative state-federal process, via a negotiated rule-making procedure, to create federal standards for driver’s licenses. Instead, the Real ID Act directly imposes specific federal driver’s license standards.Text
DHS regulations regarding implementation of the Driver's License provisions of the Act
On January 11, 2008 DHS released the final rule[12] regarding the implementation of the driver's licenses provisions of the Real ID Act. Under the DHS final rule, those states that chose to comply with Driver's License provisions of the Real ID Act are allowed to apply for up to two extensions of the May 11, 2008 deadline for implementing these provisions: an extension until no later than December 31, 2009 and an additional extension until no later than May 11, 2011. The DHS final rule mandates that, as of March 11, 2011, driver's licenses issued by the states that are not deemed to be in full compliance with the Real ID Act, will not be accepted for federal purposes. The Secretary of Homeland Security is given discretion to determine the scope of such official purposes in the future.[23] For the states that do not apply to DHS, by March 31, 2008, for an extension of the May 11, 2008 implementation deadline, that deadline will apply: after May 11, 2008 driver's licenses issued by such states will not be accepted for federal purposes. After the final implementation deadline, some non-Real-ID-compliant licenses will continue to be accepted for federal purposes, provided DHS judges that the state which issued such a license is in full compliance with the Real ID Act by the final implementation deadline. However, in order for their licenses to be accepted for federal purposes, all people born after December 1, 1964 will be required to have Real-ID-compliant cards by December 1, 2014. Additionally, in order to be accepted for federal purposes, people born before December 1, 1964 will be required to have Real-ID-compliant cards by December 1, 2017.
The REAL ID Act Driver's License Summary[15] details the following provisions of the Act's driver's license title:
Authority
Data Retention and Storage
DL/ID Document Standards
Grants to States
Immigration Requirements
Linking of Databases
Minimum DL/ID Issuance Standards
Minimum Standards for Federal Use
Repeal of 9/11 Commission Implementation Act DL/ID Provisions
Security and Fraud Prevention Standards Verification of Documents
After 2011, "a Federal agency may not accept, for any official purpose, a driver's license or identification card issued by a state to any person unless the state is meeting the requirements" specified in the REAL ID Act. The DHS will continue to consider additional ways in which a REAL ID license can or should be used for official federal purposes without seeking the approval of Congress before doing so. States remain free to also issue non-complying licenses and IDs, so long as these have a unique design and a clear statement that they cannot be accepted for any Federal identification purpose. The federal Transportation Security Administration is responsible for security check-in at airports, so bearers of non-compliant documents would no longer be able to travel on common carrier aircraft without additional screening unless they had an alternative government-issued photo ID.[16] People born on or after December 1, 1964, will have to obtain a REAL ID by December 1, 2014. Those born before December 1, 1964, will have until December 1, 2017 to obtain their REAL ID.[17]
Department of Homeland Security claims it[Real ID] is not a "national ID" system. Web sites such as no2realid.org, unrealid.com, and realnightmare.org argue that this is a trivial distinction, and that the new cards are in fact national ID cards, thanks to the uniform national standards created by the AAMVA and (especially) the linked databases, and by the fact that such identification is mandatory if people wish to travel out of the US.
The national license/ID standards cover:
How the states must share their databases both domestically and internationally through AAMVA.
What data must be included on the card and what technology it is encoded with;
What documentation must be presented and electronically stored before a card can be issued.

read the freaking law, it is a federal mandate. it is done through the states.
