OT Privacy - Clintonites Close In On Our Medical Records << Under OASIS, home health providers must interrogate ALL their patients, not merely those whose bills are being paid by the government through Medicare or Medicaid, exempting only children under age 18 and pre- and post-natal mothers. The government is thus reaching out to grab the medical records of patients whose medical bills are paid by private sources, i.e., not paid by the government. The 12-page fine-print form that home health care providers must fill out on each patient is extraordinarily detailed, offensively privacy-invading to the patient, and obviously exhausting and time-consuming for the employee conducting the interrogation. Curiously, this mandatory government form carries a copyright notice on every page, probably to prevent commentators like me from making copies and alerting the public to this new evidence of the Clintonites' efforts to collect information that is none of the government's business. The questionnaire isn't just about medical history, treatment and medications. Questions must be answered on race, ethnicity, family, whether you own or rent your residence, whom you live with, your finances, and your psychological attitude and behavior, of course, all tied into your Social Security number. There's much more. The questionnaire demands information on your mental state, your depression, your tobacco and alcohol use, your obesity, your bathing and eating practices, and your lack of motivation, unrealistic expectations, indecisiveness, suicide attempts, and life expectancy. The form asks if you make grammar mistakes, or use "excessive profanity" or "sexual references," and it has 53 boxes to be filled out on toilet and "elimination" performance. >> sightings.com Serious and scary privacy concerns, if true, but you have to watch information at this Sightings site as a number of the articles have later proven false.

Hi John : The Anglogold report IS very interesting. I was aware of the loan to buy Minorco's mines, but the forward buying is completely new to me. All the same, it's most peculiar that Anglogold buys forward AND sells forward, at the same time. Frankly, I would like to see that info confirmed at a "non-goldbug" site. Re private mail --- I took off the facility because someone was stalking me and nagging me day and night. I even changed my email adr. It took me literally months to get the pest off my back. Amazing how some people lurk on these gold sites, without having the slightest interest in gold, simply to ensnare some unsuspecting passer-by into having the BIG relationship. And then to dump all their emotional baggage on him.
