A Walk Through the Mind

It appears that I am finally getting old. I slept wrong the other day and my shoulder hurts. How have my life choices effected how I have to live my life comfortably moving forward? Executive Producer: LadyGetOverIt http://www.billybon3s.com

Throughout history, countries have sent other countries both supplies and support to other countries involved in conflict without being directly involved in it themselves. How do we, as the government, decide how much is enough support? How much more or less support should we send? What if our support is misappropriated? What if our values shift out of sync with the people we are supporting? https://www.thoughtco.com/france-american-revolutionary-war-1222026

Leaked Phone Call between Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland and US Ambassador to Ukrain

Have you ever walked into a new place and noticed how everyone acts just a little bit different? What common factor do all these people in this new place; is there something in the water that effects their behavior? Is it merely limited to what might be in the water, or could there be something in the air or within the dirt beneath our feet that effects us?

Californian regulations, effecting other States, have made the news again; previously for their emission standards and forcing electric vehicles, and this time for how pork is to be processed in order to be sold in Californian stores. How can California have such a profound impact on other States with a moderate request on how their food is raised? What regulations are already in place that effect what foods are even in the super markets we frequent? Are there ways around certain regulations to be able to feed ourselves and our families?

I woke up the other morning to the news asking where the starter home has gone. A question that has been asked several times for some time now. How do we choose where we'll live? What are some of the different factors that influence the prices on homes?

A Seattle Police Officer was recently fired for smoking pot during off duty time. Marijuana is a Schedule 1 drug, while there are other drugs that are under Schedule, alcohol and nicotine aren't included. Why are some forms of self medication bad over others? https://mynorthwest.com/1481807/seattle-cop-fired-marijuana-use-self-reported/ https://www.dea.gov/drug-scheduling Rehab Scene from Half Baked: https://youtu.be/ARXHHevvr6Q Bill Hicks bit: https://youtu.be/mPNIZ_ihai0 www.billybon3s.com

I recently listened to Hotep Jesus on Joe Rogan the other day and was educated in something that I had been taught, and never seeked out to contradict my education.

How are we kept unenlighted otherwise?

I recently listened to an episode of Congressional Dish talking about the extreme costs of going to the doctor in an emergency situtation. How much is this cost regulated? How much is forced through governmental red tape making sure we don't have snake oil salesmen?
