10a) Thesis Statement

The VeriChip should be required for all military personal going over seas and recommended for all U.S. citizens, especially children because it would make search and rescue missions more successful, identifying victims easier, and secure universal access to important documents without carrying them.

10b) Argument
III) Identifying victims easier
a) For military purposes
i) With all the casualties, many dealing with dismembered bodies, would identify John and Jane Does
ii) More reliable than dog tags
(1) Can’t be switched
b) For crash and fire victims
i) If they are unable to communicate and have no paper identification could identify quicker
IV) Secure easy access to important documents, such as medical information and social security, without carrying the papers.
a) Hospital can just scan your arm and they gain access to your past and present medical information
i) Could save your life because they get information quicker
b) Lessen identity theft
i)
V) Search and Rescue missions
a) Child abductions
i) If children are chipped at birth
ii) When activated there is a GPS tracking device programmed in (like lojack for kids) the Chip and would find the missing children quicker than the Amber Alert System
b) MIA and POW
i) Easier to track down missing soldiers
(1) Getting them out quicker and more likely alive
ii) More reliable than dog tags
