In a previous post Why accepting the FDA approved microchip might not be such a great idea I shed light over the potential misuses involved with implantable microchips that have been introduced as a tool for storing a person's medical information. As far as I know, its uses are limited to the medical field and to track pets. But its potential use extends far beyond this.
You must have a lot of trust in Government to accept a microchip in your body. I certainly don't have that level of trust, and nobody should have it. Especially considering that they seem to want to grab every opportunity they can get to limit our freedoms.
Now there is actual discussions to impose airport workers with mandatory biometrics and even implanted RFID chips.
Of course, the goal of this is just to slowly bring about acceptance for the microchip in society. It is probably unlikely that they will implement it now, but by bringing it up over and over again in the news and in films, they are creating the foundation for something bigger. Wouldn't it for example be handy to distinguish those who have gotten the flu shot from those who haven't gotten it in some way?
Perhaps they need a better excuse before implementing it, but I bet we haven't heard the last of this story.

Congress is moving quickly to put into motion measures that will ensure airport employees are subjected to stricter security checks. Everyone from Restaurant employees to airline mechanics could soon be forced to provide biometric finger and iris scans and may even face the possibility of being implanted with a microchip. (Congress proposed implanting airport workers with RFID chips)
