Physician Burnout Widespread, Especially Among Those Midcareer, Report Says
About half of all doctors surveyed said they would be willing to take a substantial pay cut to achieve a better work-life balance.
Physicians between the ages of 40 and 54 experience a higher rate of burnout than younger or older physicians, according to a recent survey of more than 15,000 physicians who cited administrative tasks and work hours as key drivers of their stress.

Big Pharma and health care corporations along with insurance have changed the personal relationship between you and your doctor. Now rarely do you get to see the same doctor over the years as they are always moving and changing jobs. The paperwork has gotten out of hand as more than half of what you pay for health care goes to the middleman. Drug companies bribe doctors to push their drugs as you also get bombed on TV with their marketing. It is no longer about your health or the doctor’s health, it is about MONEY.

They’ve been linked to road rage, pathological gambling, and complicated acts of fraud. Some make us less neurotic, and others may even shape our social relationships. It turns out many ordinary medications don’t just affect our bodies – they affect our brains. Why? And should there be warnings on packets?

Most people go to the doctor to get healed. But doctors only mask the synonyms with drugs while the body heals itself. Pain and discomfort are normal human warnings that something is not right. Best to obey the body signs rather than mask it.
Ironically, by this point the patient was so cantankerous that he flatly ignored the doctors’ advice. “He swore roundly, stormed out of the office and stopped taking the drug immediately,” she says. Two weeks later, he had his personality back.

Others have not been so lucky. Over the years, Golomb has collected reports from patients across the United States – tales of broken marriages, destroyed careers, and a surprising number of men who have come unnervingly close to murdering their wives. In almost every case, the symptoms began when they started taking statins, then promptly returned to normal when they stopped; one man repeated this cycle five times before he realised what was going on.

Our hectic, on-demand lifestyles rely upon allocating finite sets of resources to constantly changing numbers of people. As this task grows ever harder, it will require solutions to a little-known mathematical riddle. Over the last few decades, researchers have developed a range of pretty effective mathematical solutions that can allocate resources across a variety of industries and scenarios so they can attempt to keep up with the daily demands our lives place on them. But when an allocation made at one time affects subsequent allocations, the problem becomes dynamic, and the passing of time must be considered as part of the equation. This throws a mathematical spanner in the works, requiring these solutions to now take into account the changing and uncertain nature of the real world.

A solution includes either finite population or expanding into the universe.

2020 good vision needs to see clearly a new start again for all those failures we have gained experience. Not to repeat the same mistakes and improve on the next try till we have success. The world will always be in a mess because of new people ignorant of past failures learning on their own. The numbers are too great for one individual to have much effect but team work brings a greater result than a sum of its parts. Many in power throughout history fear individuals forming teams that locate the information needed prove the leaders personal greed and thirst for power over others. We are only human so keep an eye on too much accumulated power that takes advantage of the human condition.

The field of cliodynamics models how factors such as equality and demography correlate with political violence. Statistical analysis of previous societies suggests that this happens in cycles. As population increases, the supply of labour outstrips demand, workers become cheap and society becomes top-heavy. This inequality undermines collective solidarity and political turbulence follows.Assistance in our self-imposed ruin will not come from hostile neighbors, but from our own technological powers. Collapse, in our case, would be a progress trap.

Armed parishioners saved ‘untold number of lives.’ This law made it legal to have guns in church Too many complex laws preventing common sense end a thriving civilization What is happening in California is a complex problem of population, environment, poor leadership and over complex technology.

Saudi Arabia sentenced five people to death Monday for the killing of Washington Post columnist and royal family critic Jamal Khashoggi, who was murdered in the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul last year by a team of Saudi agents

This story has changed so many times people just laugh at the headlines. Was Khashoggi CIA? Does the Washington post have connections with the Washington Post? Why has Turkey dropped the case? Why a secrete trail? The Saudi Prince denies he is involved but then why kill someone who disgraced him? Do you believe that the Prince’s top agents are going to be punished? Most likely they will be deployed someplace else with different names and some war prisoners executed.

The public is kept dumb so the powerful can maintain control.

House Votes to Impeach President Trump
Democrats and Republicans vote almost entirely along party lines; president denounces effort to remove him from office

In a court of law including a grand jury the jury members have to be impartial and base judgments on fact. In our government selective enforcement is a fact of life destroying the principles this country was founded on. This country had one civil war and might have another based on cultures that do not trust that individuals will be responsible for their own lives.

In the justice system imagine if all blacks voted one way and the whites the other way. It would be a mistrial.

Many in poverty can not afford the cost of housing on low wage jobs. The government steps in and subsidized the rest. The problem is more than just not having enough money to pay taxes and repairs. People with low incomes tend to not be responsible especially when they do not own the property.Douglas, the vice president of the Barbara Jean Wright Courts’ tenant association, and other residents say their building suffers from leaky ceilings, mold, infestation, mice, shoddy repairs and a landlord who is slow to respond to their concerns.

People have to realize that living quarters require daily maintenance such as cleaning, disposing of garbage, care in using the equipment and fixtures, preventing pests, etc. Over time everything needs maintenance and or replacement. Landlords factor these cost into the rent. There is no such thing as housing cost below the price of taxes and maintenance. If there were few people would do the work to maintain their living quarters. Homelessness is a product of over population and people not having the ability to live in this demanding culture.

“Inside Public Housing Where Cockroaches Drop From the Wall and Kids are Getting Sick
Illinois’ HUD inspection failure rate is among the worst in the nation. A housing authority has delayed replacing one property for more than a decade. As the need for public housing rises, conditions in the aging structures are deteriorating.” The infestation is due to poor resident style of living and the cost should be on their shoulders not the landlord.

Since 1990, the U.S. economy has produced millions of jobs, but as you will see below nearly two-thirds of them have been low wage jobs. Of course this is one of the biggest factors causing the systematic erosion of the American middle class. Today, half of all U.S. workers make less than $33,000 a year, but meanwhile the cost of living has been steadily increasing. Housing costs, health insurance and other basic necessities have been rising much faster than our paychecks have, and this has put an enormous amount of financial stress on hard working American families.

Tupelo does not help by promoting tourist industry jobs rather than research and development jobs that make and export products.
