There is no need to stress about surveillance nor what else you cannot control.

I like to cite the heat list (i) that utilizes artificial intelligence to determine who is most likely to be shot in a top 400 ranking system by their association with previous people who have been shot. Volunteers then reach out to these people and suggest ways to stay alive.

I still enjoy knowing that I pay for my tracking chip (cellular phone), entertainment advertising supported delivery with tracking (television), a multi step filtration system with bi-monthly checks for clean water (5gallon fill up), and roll the dice with what is in the soil that grows the food I eat.

If the ground water is not safe to drink, is the food safe to eat?

They should break up the big insurance companies and not consolidate each point of sale area for more profit.

Ex: A knee brace went over the $500 requirement to have a prior approval before issuance. No one knew this at the time so the doctor gave a cost price of $100 for the brace to avoid phone calls, letters, and time.

Can we please eliminate medical bills if not sent to the patient within 90 days? 2-5 years late is just pathetic.
