Cards can be lost, just implant the chip!
All these cards with smart chips, all these cards we will lose or misplace. Instead of forgetting the password, people will forget the pin. Passports, drivers licenses, toll road passes, medical records and financial information. Why not design the human id chip, implant the sucker, grab a chair and watch the fun begin. After all, the anti-Crhsit was just elected President of the United States of Consumerism and our time is short anyway.
