Well worth watching and can be seen on line at the web address provided.


Tagging in England one an experiment and the other identity inserted under skin.
Coding where you can go, cameras on you and death to anyone who did not fit. To be used as medical, credit card etc. similar
to the tags placed in our pets but more detailed and accessed by government.

The other tag was able to identity your genetic and world place, Medically you could be DNA identified by race, religion and nationality for chemical [i]annihilation[/i]. Tested to see if it could be accomplished.
The testing to see if other countries would be able to destroy populations by DNA serum detection.

When completed in the movie it allowed Britain to control their borders and lock down entry.

Science Fiction leads Science. Remember the water Bed in Stranger in a strange land.

The endless probability of any combinations of themes is staggering.

It would seem that corporate world would have the greatest use for tag. The tag could even have a fail safe scrubber in it to end a life not needed or considered a threat.

Genetic discrimination: Something to be frightened of?

There are many things that might frighten you about genetics — the complexity of it, your psychological reaction to a genetic diagnosis, how to explain a result to your family members, and most often reported, the possibility of genetic discrimination.

Genetic discrimination refers to the possibility of an insurance company gaining access to your medical records or results of genetic testing and using this information to determine coverage or set premiums. To my knowledge, there has never actually been a case of genetic discrimination that has gone to trial, yet people continue to cite the possibility as a major reason they chose not to pursue genetic testing.

To help limit these concerns, the U.S. government signed the Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act (GINA) into law in Mayo 2008. This law:

* Prohibits both group and individual health insurers from using a person's genetic information in determining eligibility or premiums
* Prohibits an insurer from requesting or requiring that a person undergo a genetic test
* Prohibits employers from using a person's genetic information in making employment decisions
* Prohibits employers from requesting, requiring or purchasing genetic information about a person or their family members.

Unfortunately, GINA has some limitations. They include:

* It doesn't prohibit medical underwriting based upon an individual's current health status.
* It doesn't cover life, disability or long-term care insurance.
* It doesn't apply to members of the military.

The health insurance provisions of GINA will take effect in May 2009, while the employment provisions will take effect six months later in November 2009. I want to hear your thoughts on this subject: Have you had an experience where you felt discriminated against based on your genetic information? Do you think GINA provides enough security for patients? How do you think insurers will handle the rapid integration of genetics in medicine — will this become more or less of a concern? Let's talk!

Colorado Will Collect DNA From the Accused

Gov. Bill Ritter last week signed a new DNA-collection bill into law, allowing police to take DNA samples from suspects
arrested for felonies. All states allow collection of DNA from convicted felons, but 16 states now allow the forced collection
of DNA from those accused of crimes. A defendant who is found innocent in Colorado or whose charges are dismissed may
apply in writing to have the DNA sample destroyed.

Right, we'll destroy it...trust us.
