I really hoped no companies in the states have microchipped their employees, so I Googled it and found:

........July 2017 that Three Square Market, a retail technology company in River Falls, Wis., microchipped its employees.........

I'm glad Illinois is thinking about banning mandatory microchipping employees

During my employment, I agreed to drug testing through my labor union, but that got out of control real quick. I got randomly tested 3 times in the first year. Then General Contractors started requiring drug testing. Then I had a Hospital job and Nurses would run around in the morning having random people blow into an alcohol detector.

So much for "the land of the free". Still, I supposed we should thank them for leaving no doubt about how they view their staff...

Seriously, how was this ever allowed in the first place? And why is it only a state law that's proposed to cover this?

The more I read news like this the more I wish I could go back in time to the 50s or 60s. Far enough back that I'd be dead before this so-called 'future' can happen, and also a time where hardly anything changed as much. As Danny Glover once said, "I'm a gettin' too old for this s***"

I got seriously creeped out just hearing about the whole Neuralink thing.
