Just because we can do something with technology

does not mean we SHOULD. For instance with our nukes would can blow up the planet several times over....but we do NOT! With our abilities to make and distribute chemical and biological agents we could destroy entire populations in any given area..but we do NOT. Now with RFID and such we might be able to watch the movements of every single person on a 24/7 basis. Something only once considered to be the exclusive relm of God. Now I'm OK with the thought that a God would be watching me and you 24/7 because in theory a God is far better than a man/woman and has the wisdom and Grace to handle this ability and of course NOT abuse it. Fictional as that God image is...still it is OK with me. However once we give this God like ability to a handfull of people like you and I...flawed as we are, and have proven ourselves to be over the centuries...then it gets to be a bit hinkey to say the least. Again I do not mind if you track any given inventory, or because you fear for your pet's and or childrens safety you choose to use this tech. However one a person becomes an adult they should be able to choose to have RFID tech removed from their person and once a given item is sold and is not longer the property of Wal Mart and the like said tech should not only be shut off but removed (Just in case it can be re-activated) No God like power to the people.
