Have you tried taking reality into account?
"Please these RFID tags only have a range of 6'."

Please, do you really think that will be the limit even just one year from now??? Do you believe in advancements in technology?!?! Remember: in 1998 a good speed cpu was a Pentium II 400 Megahertz. Just a few years later we are at PIV multiple Gigahertz! Do you really care if employees "rob businesses blind"? Do you think Walmart is about to go under because employees are stealing 2$ tube socks? What about how corporations rob consumers blind?

"The users of those cards most likely have no idea HOW that data is used and probably don't care as long as they save money."

Yes, but if those cards broadcasted your exact location on earth at all times during the day, suddenly you'd be talking about the scenario people are rightfully fearing here. I'm hoping that you see the BIG difference..
