Despite the "Europe and the Mark" title, I hope you know that the US is not excluded from this - in fact, probably further advanced!
In the UK we've always been strongly opposed to any kind of ID card - we don't even have to carry a "driving licence" (a form of ID). But now in interests of national security and anti-terrorism, an ID card is proposed soon. The US equivalent... well, your US driving licence to be replaced with RealID...
There are credit cards out in US with RFID (Radio Frequency ID) technology where you just wave them in front of the scanner and that's all that's needed.
I believe that the mark in Revelation is a visible mark (Hebrew : charagma) but probably coupled with a microchip using RFID technology, you'll just be able to be scanned as you walk up to a checkout, or move around the country!
Applied Digital who is one of the biggest company trying to push this already is testing on mental patients and wants to microchip US soldiers (http://www.examiner.com/a-232630~Company_trying_to_get_under_soldiers__skin.html. I hate the way soldiers seem to be guinea pigs... Like when they tested the atom bomb etc. They sign up to protect their nation and are used. But that's for another thread!
Yes I know it will eventually even get to the USA.
But the USA is going to be the last place because of the mentality of the American people and the fact most americans own guns the government is less likely to try to force anything on its people.
The right to own guns and many many civilian militias in the USA is what keeps government in check.
