Hmmm... we are in a health crisis. (Financial crisis. Education crisis. Crime crisis)
How long does someone have to wait on a list for a donor? On the National Kidney Foundation's website I see the following:
"*The transplant waitlist matches deceased donors with kidney patients for a transplant. How long it takes to get one depends many factors, but it can take 2-5 years or more.*"
But that's a US based stat and it doesnt indicate the wait for a living donor.
How many surgeries can be done per year? What is the rate of growth? How many persons are added to the treatment list every year? How many of those persons are in obesity related renal failure?
This new offering will be a miracle for some people but I wonder how far it will go to putting a dent in the problem. The true solution is probably lifestyle reform. But to know that you'd have to answer the other questions.
"*They were very interested. They said: ‘Just send in the proposal*"
Sounds about right. Tell us your idea. Send us the designs too! We'll get back to you.
And we have signed on to international treaties on intellectual property protection. I wonder if that's to fool us to free up on more ideas or fool them people to think we're progressive
Lol. I sure the jury who convicted Manson and the judge who sentenced him werent murderers. I marvel at people who give the narrative that there is no corruption in politics. Same people who said there was no evidence of corruption on the police force. The real question for us isnt "if", its "who". Say for example its the most *high ranking politician* who's corrupt, and he happens to be the only corrupt one, in a barrel of saints and heroes, the entire system is rotten by default. Because every order, every turn the other way, every unearned contract award is suddenly above everybody pay grade
I cant believe it. I can not believe that there was video evidence that this gruesome thing happened and not one person anywhere reported it and the police did not demand the video. This guy could be the worst person in the world, it wouldnt matter. Nobody should be raising a question about FOIA after this.
Our culture is when making money, nothing is too dirty. We celebrate money, no matter how ot was made. We **love** money. That "*love*", I'd do anything to get it, is the root of all imaginable evil. And that is the mindset of the average Bahamian. I've heard "upstanding" people, people with influence say, "*if somebody offer me X to do Y, I'd take it*". Our political leaders depend on it. And try to make us believe its "normal".

WTF??? was this story ever reported anywhere? I can't recall coming across it.
"*Atlantis was entirely uncooperative and would not release video evidence without a lawsuit.*"
WTF is going on in this country. You have video footage of man getting his foot sawed off and nothing comes of it?
And the Commissioner has to go check see if she finds something???

Weird. Who would go to such an extent to cover up a crime and what is this from the police about the investigation "*being above their pay grade*"?
