15. The thing is is that this is simply an early step on the road to total control
First we chip our dogs, because Fido can't talk, then we chips our children, for their own safety of course. By this time large percentages of the population are saying, like you, that it is for the best. Once people are used to that idea, then we chip the old folks, the child molesters, the criminals and ex-cons. Before you know it, you're lining up at the local health clinic getting ready to be chipped yourself, wondering how you got there and how our society devolved into a police state.

This is nothing more than standard psychological conditioning, desensitizing people to the outrageous until they start to think it is normal. Sadly, it seems as though many, many people are falling for it. Even sadder, they fall for it time and again.
