RFID saves time

If the school can save 30 instructional minutes a day (5 minutes per class taking roll), the educational advantages to the kids are obvious. The ACLU once again is on the wrong side of the action.

Some things are more important than time.

It's also teaching them to submit to the police state and Big Brother.
Shock collars would save time and money on the discipline of the students. Would you approve of that? Or do you just knee-jerk against anything the ACLU says?

There is another way that RFID's are being sneaked into the body. You know all them damn needles we get over the years?
