I don’t have to sit here and tell you all that centralization of many systems causes issues, the effects are obvious to those that work with Bitcoin already. It's not much different with the medical industry than it is with money, everything from central targets for theft, to distrust of “trusted” parties. However, you may not know how many problems the centralization of medical is causing.



This month, Ben Ullrich your meetup organizer for the last 3 years has decided to give the presentation as these centralized problems in medicine have recently become very personal. From only brief research it’s crystal clear that the medical industrial complex is much more interested in making money than helping people or saving lives. Looking at metrics of every kind, shows that a lot more money (and I mean a mega load more) goes into researching of treatments for disease rather than the cures. Basically any disease such as Diabetes, tendonitis, crohn's, ADD, PTSD. Anything that means you have a life of medicating regularly ahead of you. An old saying comes to mind “cure a man's disease you feed a doctor for a day, treat a man's disease you feed a ton of doctors and drug companies for a lifetime.”



Top repressed Medications I can find are below. Post any additional in the comments so I can do some research ahead of time



Marijuana specifically CBD and THC



Ibogaine



GH



Ipamorelin/Sermorelin



Real sugar vs Refined sugar



I’m not giving you this presentation to convince you, just to present what I have recently had my eyes opened up to. You all know one of my favorite quotes:



July 29, 2010 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=532.msg6306#msg6306) (BitcoinTalk Forums): “If you don’t believe me or don’t get it, I don’t have time to try to convince you, sorry.”
