1) Far far more use of cash than avg western nations, with relatively little credit cards/ epayment
2) Electronic medical records only used by 37% of doctors last time I checked
3) Telemedicine banned till 2018

So why didn't they call her Amy on her birth certificate?
Because her mother thought that no one would ever become a SCOTUS Justice if their name was Amy
Good looking job at @Livongo but hang on "This is your chance to leverage your experience and leadership skills as you build a world class clinical platform that powers all of Livongo’s chronic condition programs"

Anyone have a scorecard of when SCOTUS justices did NOT vote the way you'd expect them to given common understanding of their political views at nomination? Some (Stephens/Warren) moved politically while on the bench, but I don't see that in any appointments since the 80s

I often enjoy following people with whom I don’t agree. Sometimes I even learn more from them than I do from the echo chamber of like-mindedness. #election2020

we can’t always control governments & politics, but what we CAN control is how we interact with each other one person at a time, one smile at a time, one pair of #pinksocks at a time. http://pinksocks.life 🎁🌍💖😊 keep doing that!✨
I’ll watch the Sunday morning news shows with this in mind. #election2020.
