"Eye on the mark"- The case for human micro-chipping




The compounding global economic crisis have caused the governments of this world to start using a term quite more often than in times past. What exactly is that word you may wonder?…well it’s “REFORM”. Reform in of itself is not a bad thing it simply means, to bring about change through planning and strategic implementation. It’s the motivation of the reform that is essential to understand. In this day and age saints ought not to think it far from reality that a one world currency or “credit” is being implemented even now. So the big question is, not who but why? Who it is encouraging the reform usually can be easy to know, as it has been said, “in often to stay hidden remain in plain sight”. However the why quite frankly is always painted out of perception and almost never the full truth. With a global economy comes global trade. Yet there has been and remains a huge problem with global trade, the problem being almost everybody has a different currency of which none have a consistent value. To easily describe how the current global trade system works, it would be like having over one-hundred people in a room with no one speaking the same language. One can now start to see how consistency would be sought after, well it is. Amidst all the controversy of too big to fail companies like Enron, Fannie and Freddie, Goldman Sachs and the Madoffs of this world just flat out stealing your money, condensation of currencies has started making big strides. The European Common Union (ECU) is composed of almost 30 countries. Thirty countries!!! Not only does the ECU have a common sovereign rule but a common currency known as the Euro. With impeding financial collapse of so many interlinked systems, the argument will be raised to unify the economies of this world, as we all are global citizens and should be able to operate more effectively as such. With a global currency exchange there will need to be a common global regulating authority. All regulating authorities are governments by any other name at the end. Now lets suppose that this global government decides that paper currency is just too unreliable, it can be stolen or destroyed and if you’re a bit forgetful like me then sometimes you leave your wallet behind. The next best solution, ever heard the saying “you’d lose your head if it weren’t attached to you”, the same applies here. Implanting small tracking devices into living creatures is nothing new.

The practice started many years ago with zoologists who used RFID tags to monitor animals in their natural habitats and their migration habits. They now track in real time over 80 million animals worldwide. You may want to also know that the two areas on your body with the highest electromagnetic capabilities are your head and your hands. Meaning these are the two primary locations for implanting an electronic device. With that being said let me introduce you to the new and improved and will continue to improve mark of the new global order.

One in four Germans wants microchip under skin: Poll

in Technology

Defined tags for this entry: human implantable chip, rfid, technology, VeriChip Raw Story | It sounds like something from a sci-fi film, but one in four Germans would be happy to have a microchip implanted in their body if they derived concrete benefits from it, a poll Monday showed. The survey, by German IT industry lobby group BITKOM, was intended to show how the division between real life and the virtual world is increasingly coming down, one of the main themes of the CeBIT trade fair that kicks off Tuesday.
In all, 23 percent of around 1,000 respondents in the survey said they would be prepared to have a chip inserted under their skin "for certain benefits."

Around one in six (16 percent) said they would wear an implant to allow emergency services to rescue them more quickly in the event of a fire or accident.

And five percent of people said they would be prepared to have an implant to make their shopping go more smoothly.

But 72 percent said they would not "under any circumstances" allow electronics in their body.

The results appeared to surprise even the high-tech sector. "This is of course an extreme example of how far people can imagine networks going," said BITKOM chief August-Wilhelm Scheer. The CeBIT, the world's biggest high-tech fair, throws its doors open to the public on Tuesday, with Spain, the current EU president, this year's guest of honour.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero were due to speak later Monday in an official opening ceremony before touring the exhibition early Tuesday.

A total of 4,157 firms from 68 countries are to unveil their latest gadgets, a decline of three percent on last year as many high-tech firms stay away amid strong competition from other events.

Chip Implanter PositiveID Aims to Clean Up a PR Mess -- One of Its Own Making

By Jim Edwards
Bnet | The pressure has finally taken its toll: PositiveID (PSID), the microchip implant company formerly known as VeriChip, has hired a PR firm to clear up inaccuracies in the media about its products — many of which originate from PositiveID’s own Web sites and its annual report.
There’s a lesson for managers here: hiding in a bunker and hoping that bad press about your business will go away on its own is a rotten strategy. Only by being upfront, transparent and above all quick in your response to negative coverage can you nip PR challenges in the bud.
PositiveID has suffered for months from dismal headlines about its experiments on elderly Floridians with Alzheimer’s and its plans to inject as many people as possible with RFID-enabled microchips that grant doctors access to their online medical records.
