If this ever becomes mandatory for sure I'm moving out of the country or living on a boat.

This new law requires an RFID chip implanted in all of us. This chip will not only contain your personal information with tracking capability but it will also be linked to your bank account. And get this, Page 1004 of the new law (dictating the timing of this chip), reads, and I quote: "Not later than 36 months after the date of the enactment". It is now the law of the land that by March 23rd 2013 we will all be required to have an RFID chip underneath our skin and this chip will be link to our bank accounts as well as have our personal records and tracking capability built into it. A class II implantable device is an "implantable radio frequency transponder system for patient identification and health information." The purpose of a class II device is to collect data in medical patients such as "claims data, patient survey data, standardized analytic files that allow for the pooling and analysis of data from disparate data environments, electronic health records, and any other data deemed appropriate by the Secretary."

In the end, according to the Snopes entry, one finds that the rest of the rumor is also true in most details except that at the moment, it has not yet been mandatory.

In other words, Obamacare only invites you, rather than forcing you to. You don't have to get "chipped" if you don't want to.

However, there was a time when the government only invited you to get a Social Security number, too. It also used to clearly say on the face of the card, "Not for Use For Identification Purposes".

It wasn't until 1961 that the IRS made it mandatory that one have a Social Security number in order to pay one's taxes. In 1965, the passage of Medicare captured everybody over 65, linking Medicare coverage to one's Social Security number. Your Social Security card still said, "Not to be used for identification purposes" right on the face of it, but that came to mean, "Not to be used for identification purposes, except by the government."
