Rick Scott: Republican Criminal - He Oversaw the Largest Medicare Fraud in History - Why Isn't He in Prison? DOJ: Do Your Job - OUTLAW CRIME

In 2000, Columbia/HCA agreed to more than $840 million in criminal fines and damages over unlawful billing practices, according to a press release from the Department of Justice (DOJ). The company later faced an additional $881 million fine in 2002, bringing its total settlement to $1.7 billion.

"While Rick Scott was CEO of Columbia/HCA Hospital, he oversaw the biggest Medicare fraud in US history and was fined $1.7 billion, which was the largest healthcare fraud fine ever levied by the DOJ," tweeted political commentator Brian Tyler Cohen in response to Scott's post. "Maybe don't listen to this guy when it comes to protecting earned benefits."
Rick Scott is used to being attacked for the historic $1.7 billion Medicare fraud fine slapped on his former hospital company. But in a new twist, he’s trying to turn his weakness into a strength by accusing his opponent of “stealing money from Medicare.”
In a state with one of the nation’s largest populations of seniors, those are fighting words. And they’re also false words...

Then The Entire World will Go Bankrupt and MASS STARVATION will happen... The Only People that will survive are Hunter/Gatherers and Subsistence Farmers...

Vote for HR-1or Move to Russia... 

I said: Please Vote YES on HR-1, The For The People Act. It's all about Freedom, Democracy, Rejection of Monarchy and Fighting Corruption. As an American Patriot I Support VOTING...

and Then on another Totally Different Subject:

SE SAID: This is so true. I remember anxiously awaiting the release date of certain albums by my favorite bands, and it was like a global collective experience because all of the fans all over the world were also waiting. And you got to hear the evolution of the band's music as you listen to their albums in order. And you'd go to the record store on the release date because you were so excited about the new album. Albums still have release dates, and I suppose fans still get excited about it, but it doesn't seem to have the same magic since most people are buying the album on their computer in their home by themselves, rather than at a busy record store full of excited fans of the band whose album you are there to buy, and often it will be playing in the store. I remember when I worked at Tower Records in 1989-1990, it was always busy and lively on the release date of a new album. One I remember clearly from when I worked there was the release of Bonnie Raitt "Nick of Time," and Queensryche "Empire." I also remember when "Vogue" by Madonna was released as a single. I rang up thousands of the cd's and cassette singles that day, and I still have mine.

NM Replied: To have the time and energy to stay awake to just listen to a new album like that.... those were the days....

An album should be consumed whole... 

Now we've got mp3s and mixed spotify-type playlists, splitting all the carefully designed song transitions, and removing the deep soul connection we used to be able to have with new music, as it was being told like a story of songs...

And you had to sit with one or 2 sets of new songs for weeks, maybe months, maybe years before you could afford another tape/cd... you got intimate with your music, and none of it was disposable...

Nowadays, though...

The trade-off i suppose is accessibility.  Almost anything can be found if you look deep enough... but also so much is lost because not all music in the world will be saved by digital restoration... 

People are able to choose from thousands of songs at any time... which is nice.  But we don't as often get put into the situation of getting really familiar with music, in a specific album order, because we had no choice but to wait for anything else... 

We appreciated the music more when we knew the CD or tape was our only source... 

Now we can download and delete music at a moments notice... convenient.... but doesn't make us focus enough to sit and appreciate like we used to... 

Some of us still choose to, of course...

SE REPLIED: Oh yeah, I loved all of the cool stuff inside of the album, especially the lyrics, but also the pictures and artwork and other stuff. It was even cooler with record albums. All of that is pretty much gone now. I mean, I guess it's virtual, but there was something about buying a physical album and holding it in your hands.

I SAID: Album Cover Artwork was a Major Part of The Culture... Remember Sgt. Pepper and Trying to Figure Out Who all those People were? and That was Created before Photoshop was invented... The Artist Took Prints of Photographs and an Exacto Knife and made a Collage... and Photographed That...

CAN YOU SPOT THE FREAKING TREND?
HERE IS THE ANSWER TO THIS CRYPTIC PUZZLE!

What Did I Learn from My Near Death Experience? I've Always Had a Feeling that I Had Some Important Goal to Accomplish. Then I realized It wasn't so much of a BIG Goal that was Needed to Be Done but Helping People Daily Thru My Entire Life. ..

Simply Making the World a Better Place To Live Every Day. That Was The Lesson. 

Since I Did Not Die at Age 19... I've held Many Jobs that Made a Difference... and I Joined AA where the Opportunity Arose to Do 12th Step Service... and Now that I'm Retired, I Can Write my Blog to Help People Learn From History... and Have Fun Printing Drawings to Color... It's a Wonderful World... 

My Jobs Included: Working as a Clerk in an Art Supply Store. I Helped People Buy Art Supplies and Gave Advice on How to Use What They Bought. Sometimes I Gave Bad Advice but In General, I Made the World a Better Place to Live... 

Then I Became a Draftsman in a Computer Company. We Made Machines that Helped Doctors Store their Patient's Charts. That's a Useful Idea... and Every Doctor Now Uses a Computer to Store Patient's Records.

Then I designed Equipment for the US Air Force. Helping to Defend the Country. 

Then I Delivered Pizza at Domino's... Helping Hungry People... Many Couldn't Leave the House... My Work Was Especially Useful During a Snowstorm...   

Then I Sold Electronic Equipment at Radio Shack. Helping People Solve Their Tech Problems. Our Store had a LOT of Retired Engineers that Could Give Accurate Technical Advice. I Learned from Those Old Men. 

Then I worked at The Welfare Department Helping Homeless People Live Indoors... and Get Food and Medicine... and Find a Job... 

~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~

Now that I'm Retired... I Spend my Time Writing a Blog... Hopefully I Can Use this Platform to FIGHT BRAINWASHING by Republicans... Fox "News" Has A Mind Control CULT that Believes LIES...

I Know What it’s Like to Be Dead... 

Recently I Had a Colonoscopy. The Anesthetic used was propofol ( the same Drug that Killed Michael Jackson) – I remember in the Operating Room the Nurse said “Roll Over” and then Instantly I was in the Recovery Room Wondering IF I Had Had a Colonoscopy. So I asked… and She Said The Procedure was Over… and Would I Like a Cup of Coffee?

That’s What I Think Death is Like… Except no one brings you Coffee When You Wake Up because You Never Wake Up… 

 

You Can Do It! You Can WAKE THE F*CK UP! 

Did You Know that Fox "News" Was Caught Intentionally LYING and Had to Pay $787.5 Million Dollars? OH! You Didn't Know That? Because they Didn't Tell You that Fact ON FOX NEWS! Every OTHER TV News Station Covered that Story Except FOX... Surprise! They Lied By OMISSION! Keeping this News SILENT...

My Near Death Experience. In 1974 My Friends and I Went Backpacking at Hetch Hetchy Reservoir in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. One Day We ate LSD and Peyote and Smoked some Marijuana... Then we went Mountain Climbing... 

Since We had a Lot of Extra Energy and Courage, We climbed up a Chimney... a crack in the granite rock where a person can Shimmy Up... I've never done that Before or After that Day. But That was a Special Day... Tripping!

Later, I walked down near the Edge of the Tuolumne River so I Could Watch the Water Bubbling UP in a Big Pool that had been Carved into the Granite over a Million Years...

and I Slipped IN! I Was Swimming Out of Control in the Raging Waters... The River Forced Me to the Bottom of the Pool... and then I GAVE UP... I RELAXED AND ACCEPTED DEATH. 

and then the River Pushed me Up to The Surface at a Spot Where I Could Climb Out. I walked back to the Campsite, got into my sleeping bag and stayed there for The Rest of the Day... Safe and Warm... 

~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~

Hey... I believe that there is a Reason I Didn't Die that Day... I was Spared so I Could Accomplish some Unfinished Business... I Don't Know Exactly WHAT That Business IS... So I Just DO Everything As If It Was Important!

Hidden in Yosemite National Park’s peaceful northwest corner, Hetch Hetchy Valley is a treasure worth visiting in all seasons. In spring, two of North America’s tallest waterfalls plummet spectacularly over thousand-foot granite cliffs. With its towering falls and dramatic domes, many have compared Hetch Hetchy’s grandeur to the more well-known Yosemite Valley. From early spring through late fall, visitors have easy access to a vast wilderness filled with high-country lakes, streams, and wildlife. Snowy winter days give adventurous visitors a chance to explore on skis or snowshoes.

I also enjoy singing songs and Playing the Guitar... This is My Latest Effort... a SATIRE of "LODI" By Creedence Clearwater Revival...

I could buy a Tractor and Start Me a Communal Farm...

But Vladimir is a Nutcase, He wants me to Go to the Front!

World peace is achievable in the simplest of ways…. I wish I knew who deserves credit for this experiment:
A university professor posed a challenge to his students. Each of them had a balloon with their name. The balloons would fall from the ceiling and they would have 5 minutes to find theirs. If everyone found the one with their name, they won... if not, they lost.
Although they tried with all their energy to find them, no one succeeded. The teacher put the balloons back and told them, "When you catch a balloon, give it to its owner". The test took less than 3 minutes to complete.
The teacher finished by saying, "Happiness is like these balloons. If each of us looks only for our own, we will never find it. But if we look for others', we will also find ours." Exactly the same happens with teamwork in companies. If you help others achieve their goals, others will do the same with you.

On FaceBorg FG Said: 

We don’t practice meditation for the purpose of attempting to fix ourselves, and the practice does not have to do with self-improvement or becoming perfect. Inner freedom is far different and much more relaxing than perfection. Our purpose in practice is not to become a better meditator but rather to know a happiness that lies within. We train the mind to access intrinsic peacefulness and a sustained current of joy. This joy is not the opposite of grief, but a current that runs underneath all of life. The question is how to access and swim in this current.

As we know, there are many scientific studies that point to the beneficial effects of a dedicated meditation practice. The one I like best has to do with what has been termed the “feel-good” gene. Scientists have found that because of a genetic variation in the brain, some people are naturally less anxious, and thus happier, than other people are. Those who have this genetic variation find it easier to let go of past painful experiences. This genetic mutation produces higher levels of anandamide in the brain, which is a neurotransmitter that produces a sense of well-being. The name given by scientists for this gene, anandamide, originates from the Sanskrit word ‘ananda’, which translates as internal bliss, joy, happiness, or delight. It is sometimes known as “the bliss molecule”. Ananda was also the name of the Buddha’s attendant. Other than having to say to visitors, “no, you can’t see the Buddha right now, he is resting,” it was likely to have been quite the blissful job.

About 20 percent of the population is born with this genetic makeup. We either have it or we don’t. I was not born into this life with this gene. Yet, the anxiety I began with has dissolved over a lifetime of meditating. It is clear to me that the practice of meditation has made up for the absence of this genetic predisposition. I have observed this same shift in many practitioners, the easing of anxiety and an increase in well-being. For most of us, if we meditate over time, it does not matter whether we were born with the feel-good gene or not. Knowing this inner sense of well-being is one of the benefits of training our minds.
