Sci-fi Writer Elizabeth Moon Believes Everyone Should Be Chipped

Bob the Super Hamste writes "The BBC has an opinion piece from science fiction writer Elizabeth Moon who believes that everyone should be chipped or barcoded at birth. Her reasoning is that it would prevent identification mistakes and even allow soldiers to identify combatants from non-combatants. Her comments came as part of a discussion on future wars hosted by the BBC World Service."

Except by even proposing something like this or stating something akin to "in fiction it would work" she is showing she has less cognitive reasoning capacity than an average teenager. "in fiction it would work"... Yeah, in badly written chock-full-o'-plot-holes fiction it would work. Seriously this goes beyond "did not do the research" and into willful ignorance.
