How doctors face the choice of prolonging life without quality

02/25/2012

The need to find closure to life in an atmosphere of comfort, peace and home, and how hospitals cannot provide this. The better choice of doctors who choose quality over quantity of life- when the odds of surviving move up dramatically, say from 5% to 15% by using technological advances, but are still very low. The issue is also one of spiralling costs for an aging populaton in the U.S., when one of the options being considered is dismantling of Medicare as it was known in the years since 1950, or cutting Medicare services when they are most needed.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
