We knew they'd start chipping people some day...

I don't have a problem with bar codes and chips per se, but I do have a problem with them being injected into my body. As Betty pointed out - they can't be easily removed. (If I recall correctly, the article I read said something about them sometimes moving even deeper into the body and having to be located with magnets or somesuch. This does not sound like fun to me.)

If I wanted to, I could leave the cell phone and passport and tires and Walmart products behind and sprint naked into the woods, frightening wildlife all the way, and escape The Man for a spell. If I have to have a chip injected to hold a job/receive medical care/have kids/be a citizen, it will be much harder for me to jump of the grid for a spell, should I choose to do so.
