It was just what I was looking for as a lead in to a letter I've been wanting to right to Letters to Editor. If my letter was ever going to stand a chance of be published, then it was now, thanks to you Chris.<br /><br />Here it is:-<br /><br />Chris Trotter’s article 16/10 certainly struck a few chords. As he stated “propaganda hasn’t changed much in eighty years" If you tell the masses something often enough and long enough, they will believe it.<br /><br />Reuters news reported last month that VeriChip Corp shares rose 186% after the company announced it had been granted an exclusive license to patent their swine flu pandemic detecting mini-microchip for the purpose of human implantation. With these chips the spread of a pandemic can only be remotely detected if a large amount or the entire population have them, reports VeriChip.<br /><br />How fortunate for VeriChip that the media have hyped H1N1 up to fever pitch as well as WHO upgrading this influenza strain phase six pandemic level. How fortunate for politicians also. Governments are well aware that the masses would baulk at being micro chipped, however with enough fear induced reporting from health authorities and/or the media the masses may accept illogical measures during a scare and willingly have a VeriChip radio frequency identification device implanted.<br /><br /><br />It may sound insane at present; however those purchasing VeriChip shares certainly don’t think so, or perhaps they are privy to something we are not.Julie Smithhttp://www.offtheradar.co.nznoreply@blogger.com
