C.J. Box’s new novel “Off the Grid” gives the down-and-dirty on our government’s collection and storage of ALL of our information, including our incoming and outgoing communications.
Last month I spent a few days in the hospital. They asked about my family’s medical history which I told them. Then they asked for my parents, brother and sister names. I told them that they didn’t need their names and stopped anymore non-medical questions. I have lived a fairly reclusive lifestyle for the past 25 years and was stunned that things have gone so far.
Good for you! There’s a growing list of questions the medical community is asking that I refuse to answer - one being do you own a gun or is there one in your home. The states we live in & the FBI/ATF, et al, already have this information in their records; let them cross-reference and look it up. It’s none of my health provider’s business. We’ll probably be “fired” by our doctors/nurse practitioners more & more in the future because we refuse to accept their canned “Standards of Health” (rules they have which are set by bureaucrats in “healthcare”), patient compliance rates (which is tied directly to their bonuses), and any other invasive queries they ask.
