I look at this story and think about all of the times people bash "conspiracy therorists" on here. With this kind of thing going on, how can you blame people for being paranoid? Too bad Spitzer wasnt paranoid.

 

[New York For Paul]

Spitzer was paranoid. He didn't wire money in his name, he sent cash I suppose. He used fake names etc.

But when you got the FBI chasing you, there is usually no hope of getting away with things.

There's a reason they want us all to use plastic rather than cash. That and the opportunity to tax garage sale transactions.

If people aren't paranoid by now, they just aren't paying attention (chuckles nervously)

I know how we can solve this problem!

We can implant RFID chips into our hand with biometric/DNA verification to buy/sell!

It can also have a built-in GPA device unless we get lost, kidnapped, or in case we're a terrorist.

We have a little food store in our office building and everytime someone takes out their card to pay $1.87 for a drink and a bag of chips I cringe. I always think of those commercials. It takes way longer to swipe that card wait for approval and sign the receipt than just to give the cashier 2 frickin dollars.

The only thing worse are people who write checks at the grocery store

 

[midevilmark]

Yeah, what better way to get to the implant RFID than drive everyone to plastic and Real ID then offer the convenience and SECURITY of having everything on one chip implanted where it can't be stolen.
Can you imagine what is going happen when Real ID comes along and someone figures out how to steal all the info off the card once they steal the card from you. I guess we have to make more secure, we'll stick it under your skin. I guess you won't leave home without it!!!!!!

A little something for those who like the "talkies."

I've heard there are stores here in Kansas that no longer accept cash, and only credit cards.

Sign of the times, eh?
