Do you own any animals? Chickens, rabbits, cows, dogs or cats? Do you know anybody who owns any of these? If so, I have some news of some new national rules that has not quite come out yet, but will affect every person who owns animals. This will knock ur socks off.

It has not been taken up by Ms legislators yet....I hope not, but in other states such as Texas and Missouri they are introducing legislation to RFID chip every animal, every dog, cat, chicken, cow, bird etc etc that is owned by people. Eventually, by law, everybody who owns any animal must RFID chip and have a premise number. Anybody who does not comply will be fined $1000 day per animal. This 'regulation' will be sponsored by the USDA and will be slipped in *authorized* under the Patriot Act, so that there will not be much debate on it. If the people allow this, what will be next HUMANS BEING CHIPPED? ? www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=49321www.nonais.org/ www.texasanimalhealthcommissionwatch.com/article2.htmwww.texasanimalhealthcommissionwatch.com/Notjusttexas.htm

Why the hell would they want to tag all of our animals? What purpose does it serve? I mean, aside from finding an animal that's run away or finding out who a stray belongs too.... doesn't make any sense.

Possibly it is more about control? ?? Maybe profits? ? Since the USDA is really wanting this. After all, if people cannot afford or want gov intrudance on their land, then they will have to buy all their food, formerly what they used to raise for themselves to eat? If people have a few chickens for eggs and food, then they will have to either allow their animals to be tracked and taxed or just buy their food at the store. Same with people who raise their own beef. Maybe they do not want people to be self-reliant? After all, if people are made to buy food at the store, the peoples would be subject to their prices and have to pay whatever they demanded just to stay alive. With gas prices going up and up and up, you know the food prices will go up to offset truckers costs.
