As a person who does travel out of country from time to time for work, I've hated the idea of RFID tags in passports from day one. There are many parts of the world where broadcasting a signal that says "Hey, I'm an American!" to anybody with a 50-dollar RFID reader is a horrible and downright dangerous idea.
Security issues aside, gross invasion of privacy issues abound. Yes, I know that companies already know everything I buy with a credit card but I'd hate to get to a point where somebody simply has to drive a truck down my street and scan my house to see what products I've purchased.
