Imagine a medical device that travels through the human body to seek out and destroy small clusters of cancerous cells before they can spread. Or a box no larger than a sugar cube that contains the entire contents of the Library of Congress. Or materials much lighter than steel that possess ten times as much strength. — U.S. National Science Foundation http://www.crnano.org/whatis.htm consectetuer Nanotechnology has not received much attention in the news but Natural News has been investigating the use of molecular nanobots in food and drugs. Not only that, nanobots will be building factories and be used in those factories replacing human labor? Sounds like some Star Trek kind of anomaly? Investigation suggests that in twenty to thirty years, societal upheaval will again shift to the nano-era in the same way that computers have changed the way we live and work. Consider the following facts from the crnano.org website.
Economic disruption from an abundance of cheap products
Economic oppression from artificially inflated prices
Personal risk from criminal or terrorist use
Personal or social risk from abusive restrictions
Social disruption from new products/lifestyles
Unstable arms race
Environmental damage or health risks from unregulated products
Free-range self-replicators (grey goo)
Black market in nanotech (increases other risks)
Competing nanotech programs (increases other risks)
Attempted relinquishment (increases other risks)

Let's consider the use of nano-tracking bar code technology in pharmaceuticals. According to Mike Adams of Natural News in his article Big Pharma nanotechnology encodes pills with tracking data that you swallow (Update 1), "The pharmaceutical industry may soon begin using nanotechnology to encode drug tablets and capsules with brand and tracking data" Scientists deconstruct natural occuring atoms and molecules found in nature and reconstruct them to make new things. The research is not yet in on how this will affect our environment and living standard.
Simply put, there will be barcodes in our food and medicine with the ability to track if medicines are taken, purchased, where purchased and how much. Invasion of privacy and other issues arise because of this type of technology. Adams contends that nano particles are not just used in pills. Sunscreens, fabric protectors, plastic food liners, and other products contain these particles.
In the future doctors will be able to scan through the skin and pull up via nano-barcode every drug that has been ingested. There are significant ramifications to this kind of technology. Nano particles are easily inhaled in through the nasal cavity and absorbed into the brain tissue causing brain inflammation
Nanoparticles are already being used in the food supply. Their use includes food packaging, films, container and other storage products. This use of nanoparticles has not shown safety for use inside of humans for toxicity. The release of free radicals is a justified worry. Scientists know that nanobots or particles yield a grey goo which seems to be a product of nanoparticle release. There are several areas in which the consumer should be concerned about this technology. Consider the following applications by which this technology can be used to wreck your life.
- To deny you employment.
- To deny you health insurance coverage.
- To serve as evidence against you in a court of law.
- To take away your children by labeling you mentally unstable.
- To force you to take vaccines that you've been avoiding.

The use of this technology could be used to enforce mandated vaccines drug use and health record disclosure by employers and government agencies to ensure compliance by populations. This may be the end of health privacy as we know it. Adams calls this RFID for pharmaceuticals.
Walmart is already using RFID radio frequency chips in their clothing citing the high rise in theft as justification of this product. This device in clothing however tracks usage of the product where and how it is used. The government is already mandating vaccines and school shots for kids and if parents are not keeping up,they face court dates and hefty fines. This could play into the usage of the human body for a walking hard drive of information to force consumers to spend even more money on pharmaceuticals. Check out the ever increasing co-pays on your health plan. The premiums are not a pretty price either. These insurance prices increase every year. The deductibles increase every year also.
Some pundits reveal that nanobots will replace human labor in the future. This will eliminate human use in the work environment displacing workers in this age of technology worse than the computer/information era. Remember those Terminator movies? How about I Robot? In Japan some innovators are making wife-robots. Remember be informed, stay informed, get involved.

The benefits outweigh the costs. And I seem tounderestimate he power of the individual which will only get stronger. That's good to dightoppression but bad to fight. Terrorism. Remmember RFID goes bot ways. Everybody can read it. Not just 'big brother' anybody smart enough and wavy enough could use it to bypass detecion ot for malicious intent on others. And an intelligent machine may be e xtremely useful to sol e all of our problems. It can desig ai software.. Making robots subconcious and yes...replacing all manual labour...ever seen the animatrix? It would e like that except the robot cold not kill becausethe aoftware would be subconcious and controlled by a central actual aware machine intelligence whose interest would be to merge us or perfect us the ones that wanted to it's lelve...much easier than exterminating us and facing worldwide deatructuoo ...while serving humans in megacities that might jus want to enjoy the benefits of free labour..what is so bad about that?
You could have ur own designer society for the politcally minded.. Individuals would have more freedo
to choose what society is best for them. Labour issues would not be a problem..robots would basically make everybody rich. There wouldne no need for taxes and no need to help the poor or exploit that need for power because technology will advance and self replication could potentially be so cheap that health car wouldne very near zero I. Cost since it will be automated and standard huge lavish apartments a given. this would make conservatives and liberalshappy see...in fat such terms by hen due to expansions of intelligence may be obsolete outdated or irrelevant by. Then. There is no need to redistribute wealth if everyonehas what they wa and more... What they desire...nanobots wouldhave little to do his t printed nervous systems and ai would. Which would be possible throuh nanotechnology.
What I see Asa threat are people that could generate viruses but given cetain controls
I think a super Intelligent computer would outmatch them however. the world would not be big brother in the sense that eveuone will be able to express hemselves Nd the propaganda of years past will be supplanted by e pansio a of intelligence on the individual level and logic. Makig everyone an edu Syed citizenry and throug mind sharing come to the most logical onclusion. But it will be more monitored by ncessity. I think this cenury we may witness a terrible terorist at hat will change civilization as we know it. I don't thi a gray goo scanrio is possible because here are limitations tonon orglanic replication..there is a reason why it's so rampant in nature and it works so we'll..billions of years of evolution.but I do think nanotechnology may make nuclear sort of weaponry easier to produce and individuals capable of say printing Ebola in new York cirty by having a bio printer and downloading it's DNA from the Internet...so it willne essitate a global dictatorship..but par
But ParaDoXically I thin someone like glen beck might be quite pleased because such tech will also make centralizaion of power impossible. Trujillo is the greatest equalizer and if more is shared court cases may actually be more just and more preserving of individual rihts. As paradoxical as it might seem I actually think in such a world information will be hard to contain and hence the collective will want individu rights it individually and collectively being better for everyone involved and acing as a sort of subconciuz reaction to oppression be ause any unilateral decisio by a centralized power wil be far too obvious for this sort of thing to fly. So it will actually make things more just due to the ubiquity of information. Not to mention eventually mind reading of any suspect throguh a mind machine interface v a computer while drugged and dreaming to see if the suspect comittee the crime. Possiy

I inteligeny and worthy of appreciation thy seeing the geniuses thouhts in solviv problems anchow others view u acually early in developemtn so u can make the necessary changes to be happy therest of ur life hence feeling appreciated yet having individuality personality difference to make if meaningful. People will bebounx by contract not oppression in an unsafe world and so the main issue will be security paranoia and privacy not oppression. People will check on each other and privacy might change but othe factors as well to the point that it won't be intrusive be ause if u have a disease al u do is upgrade ur genetic software. If u are not good in relationships all u do is some introspectionny seeicng how overs per rice u I. Therapy ...on a mind tomind basis...not veryintelligent? by seeing how thegenius solves the proble in class u become the genius..eventually all faults will have a solution and wil be attributed to lack of perspective or genetics. And so it won't be a barrier ..s
Of u are ugly body atranspalnts may be the answer. Imteligence increased through geneic e gineerifng and. Mind sharing. So if someone knows ur weakness..who cares it's out of r control yet easily changeable.
Now I do tho k there might be alot of catastrophes this cenury bt not because of this technolog..economic problems and a bleak world in the early 21st may be suplanted by this world I the later half of the21st cetury.
I think he benefits of this tech will far outweigh he costs. It make 20th cenutry philosphy obsolete and may Acheive a sort of utopia 200 ears from now through trial and error.
