  • I have way too many things I need to answer that I don’t know the number of, and/or get mislabeled by the phone company, to do that, or trust “scam likely”.

    My primary care physician’s office is scam likely My neurosurgeon’s office is scam likely My neurologist’s office is scam likely

    I have a feeling the phone company, or whoever they get those labels from, might just be putting any number for a business name, linked to an Indian name, as “scam likely”. They don’t get my Orthopedic surgeon’s office wrong, or my nephrologist’s, or my endocrinologist’s, or my podiatrist’s and those are ones with European names. Everyone else, scam likely, even ones I didn’t list here, everyone else are doctors from India/Indian decent.

    I also get a lot of calls from government phones, and other private businesses, that just show “unknown”, or a number I don’t recognize, but are important for me to answer. I don’t know these numbers ahead of time, because they don’t know who is going to call me back when these contacts are arraigned.






  • Yes, and growth is sustained by striking a balance of quality and quantity in terms of the human population. If this balance becomes out of whack you will decline into what they refer to as “malthusian stagnation”. So the population does need to grow in order to sustain economic growth, along with the quality of the individuals that make up the population. What they refer to as “economic darwinism” beings to truly take place as a population has the extra resources to put more into children than parent, creating generational progress. Post industrial economic darwinism gets a buffer, so-to-speak, due to the increased per capita productivity introduced by technology. However this is also not infinite, and so, at some point this will plateau, and the population will need to begin rising again to spur growth. We are likely in the midst of this plateauing.
