Notice the repetitive use of the word "safe".
Here's the technology that is more likely to be used if they really get serious about "chipping" the population:
Microsoft links up with human embedded RFID chips
Human chipping on its way with verichip
Human chips more than skin deep
California outlaws forced rfid tagging of humans
I don't think this will involve a forced operation. TPTB are really cowards and don't want a revolution on their hands. Any good farmer knows better than to stampede the cattle. They will try to figure out a way for most people to want to have it through fear and/or safety/convenience arguments. A bait and switch. At some point, those who have refused so far will have no access to banking. That's just my guess when I put on my "evil overlord" thinking cap. Watch how they are doing things now: SLOWWWWLY, a very gradual loss of liberties.
