Omni magazine, June 1991, (p.59) made this surprising
statement, "CASH AND CREDIT CARDS WILL SOON BE OBSOLETE."
InformationWeek, Oct. 11, 1993, boldly trumpeted on it's
cover, The Cashless Society, It's in the Cards, The article
dogmatically stated, (p.4) "Bet your bottom dollar: The United
States IS BECOMING A CASHLESS SOCIETY . . ."
The fastest growing
movement in the financial world is "smart cards". Smart cards,
which resemble ordinary credit cards, contain tiny computer chips, capable
of storing data, such as bank accounts, medical information, etc. Already
widely used in Japan and Europe, according to InformationWeek,
(p.4) "BY NEXT YEAR, cards will be used to pay for health care
and insurance, to receive government benefits, and to buy items in vending
machines . . ."
Newsweek magazine,
July 31, 1989, (p.54) said smart cards, "may make the old
science-fiction notion of a CASHLESS SOCIETY REAL."
A pilot program is
already being tested at the Marine Corp's Parris Island training base in
South Carolina. According to Newsweek, "On payday,
recruits receive smart cards rather than cash. When a marine makes a
purchase on base, he plugs the card into a small terminal and the sum is
automatically deducted from his pay." Newsweek says, "THE
BASE IS, IN FACT, A CASHLESS ECONOMY – even the telephones
take smart cards."
The Birmingham News,
August, 24, 1993, (p.1B) report on smart cards, said, "Before
long, you'll use this electronic check to pay for groceries, gasoline,
taxes, stamps, fast food – in virtually any business where you now use
checks or cash." Robert Mckinley, president of RAM Research Corp.
says, "You've heard about the cashless society . . . IT
MAY FINALLY BE ON ITS WAY."
Infosecurity News,
Sept/Oct 93 (p.27), writes, "An extraordinary effort is now
underway to build an INFRASTRUCTURE FOR LARGE-SCALE USE of smart cards in
electronic data interchange, national health- care systems,
financial-transaction systems and interactive home services . .
."
Pilot programs, utilizing
smart cards, are already being tested in Minnesota, New Jersey, Iowa,
Oklahoma, South Carolina and Dayton, Ohio. And according to Lawrence
Rudmann, USDA Director of Public Affairs,"It's only a matter of
time before ALL FEDERAL PROGRAMS – are brought into compliance,. .
." But that's not all...
U.S. News and World
Report, told of a frightening reason for smart cards. "To keep
closer watch on individuals, engineers have devised a forgeryproof NATIONAL
IDENTITY CARD — THE SMART CARD."
AND HOW MIGHT THEY GET
THE BALL ROLLING?
President Clinton has
repeatedly, on national television, held up before the American people
– the National Health Care Card. And for the very first time in
history, every man, woman, and child will be numbered and required to carry
a card. No exceptions! No excuses! EVERYBODY! In
the book, Putting People First by President Clinton,
outlining the Clinton agenda, page 22, reads, "ALL
AMERICANS will carry 'smart cards'. . ."
An article in Investor's
Business Daily, (Nov. 16, 93, p.1), titled, The Dark Side of
Health Reform, stated,"Privacy rights advocates are also
concerned that the health ID would end up being used by the government for
FAR MORE than just determination of health benefits."
PC Week magazine
(May 9, 1994 p.1) had an article titled, "Postal Service, IRS
developing national identity cards; Clinton may give OK". The
article stated, "The Clinton administration is working on
creating an identification card that every American will need to interact
with ANY FEDERAL government. . . Sources close to the administration said
President Clinton is also considering signing a pair of executive orders
that would facilitate the conection of INDIVIDUALS' BANK ACCOUNTS and
federal records to a government identification card. . . the Postal Service
is prepared to put more than 100 million of the cards in citizens' pockets
within months of administration approval, WHICH COULD COME AT ANY
TIME. . ."
A sinister plan is being
carefully carried out by an unseen, but very real hand!
The major concern of the
smart card is security. Credit card fraud costs $1 billion dollars a year!
And if you think we've got problems with credit card fraud — what do you
think will happen when your
"financial-healthcare-identification-everything-smart- card" is
stolen! A side-article in InformationWeek (p.36), asks the
"10-million-dollar question", "What if A Thief
Swipes Your Card?". Infosecurity (p.28) also asks, "The
standard question is: 'What happens if a user forgets his or her smart
card?'".
The answer is
obvious . . .
It's going to have to be
— PERMANENTLY ATTACHED TO THE INDIVIDUAL!
Automatic I.D. News,
March 1992(p.E40), says, "AUTOMATIC IDENTIFICATION plays an
important role in the emerging cashless society." Automatic I.D. News,
Sept. 1990 (p.37), says, "The fastest-growing segment in the
access control market, . . . is biometric sensors. These devices identify
people by fingerprints, retina patterns and other BODY-BASED methods
. . ."
Already, in Spain, dogs
and cats, are required by law, to have microchip implants injected into
their skin. The system is also used in the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal,
Great Britain, Belgium, Ireland, New York City and California. And, to stop
baby-swapping, kidnapping – it is being considered for use in identifying
CHILDREN!
MAKE NO MISTAKE
ABOUT IT - 666 IS COMING!
In 1991, while America's
attention was absorbed in the Gulf War Crisis, the House
"silently" passed, a little-known bill, called The Federal
Telecommunication System 2000 (FTS 2000). At a cost of $25 billion, it is
the single largest money appropriation in U.S. history. FTS 2000 requires
by law, all computer and phone lines, connected via high-tech computer
network. According to a published study of FTS 2000, by Craig Hulet, of KC
& Associates, "The system is QUITE REAL; . . . THERE IS NO
QUESTION that once it is in place, one will 'neither buy nor sell' without
being very much a part of the system." Revelation 13:17! What
do think President Clinton was referring to in his State of the Union
address, on January 25, 1994, when he said, ". . . we must
also work with the private sector to connect every classroom, every clinic,
every library, every hospital in America into a NATIONAL INFORMATION SUPER
HIGHWAY by the year 2000."
How serious are they? In
the book,Creating a Government that Works Better & Costs Less by
Vice President Al Gore. Vice President Gore, (p.114), calls for ".
. . the rapid development of a nationwide system to deliver government
benefits ELECTRONICALLY. . . develop an implementation plan for electronic
benefits transfer by March 1994." According to Gore, the
process is well under way
(p.114),"There are test sites
in Iowa, Minnesota, New Mexico, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, and
Wyoming."
In 1974, a strange, new
mark began appearing on products. Until today, virtually every product is
now marked with that familiar UPC barcode. And there are three embedded
numbers on every UPC barcode.
What are the three hidden
numbers?YOU GUESSED IT! 666!
