I'm thinking this "information" belongs in a different category. Still thinking what that would be. But not politics.

Jamie Dimon the next president in the White House? It was a long way from General Sherman's unambiguous "If nominated I will not run; if elected I will not serve." Dimon also noted that if he did become president he "wouldn't be as interesting as the one you have now." Potential nomoniee Vice President candidate Lloyd Blankfein classes up politics with a glass of wine.  [img] https://assets.bwbx.io/images/users/iqjWHBFdfxIU/iLEMqzj22nZ4/v0/1200x630.jpg[/img]

Politics, Finance, and Health Care bring up the topic of 8 drugs that exist in nature. Illegal to grow, but health care companies are allowed to treat ill patients in America. Why are we in Afghanistan, a drug called Opium poppy for morphine in a hospital in the U.S. https://theweek.com/articles/464010/8-drugs-that-exist-nature

The NBA Age of Anxiety Perhaps we are living in a golden age of unhappiness. Rich Harvard Business School graduates are miserable; millennials are burned out; Trump supporters are unhappy; Trump opponents are in despair. Or perhaps people are no more unhappy than they ever were, and we are simply more likely to hear about it. (As a phrase, the age of anxiety is as old as the N.B.A.) The league has become, in many ways, a more humane place; on many teams, when players are struggling mentally or emotionally, they are encouraged to acknowledge and address it, at least privately. At the Sloan conference, Silver talked about how individual teams and the league are devoting more and more resources to helping players with mental-health issues. Some of the current and former players who have spoken publicly about their struggles with depression—DeMar DeRozan, Kevin Love, and Chris Bosh, among others—have been instrumental in helping to challenge the taboo against seeking help...........
Davis explained his decision to request a trade as evidence that he is “growing up.” “As a player, as the C.E.O. of my own business, I got the power,” he said. “I’m doing what I want to do, and not what somebody tells me to do.” No one blinks these days when a player calls himself the C.E.O. of his own brand; we are all brands now, supposedly. But, for N.B.A. players, that postmodern axiom is much more real than it is for most of us. It is also awkwardly at odds with the collectivity of teamwork. Brands don’t have teammates. They don’t even really have friends. The identity of a brand is, quite literally, defined by how the public sees it. It must make for a peculiar kind of loneliness to feel obliged to see yourself this way, too.
