See the thing is, you're not able to determine whether a person is "no danger of further injury" being you aren't a medical professional.

A person with a severe impact might not have much external signs or pain, but could be bleeding internally. That would present a problem in the backseat of an uber on the highway.

Without stabilization, a broken bone can cut or puncture any number of blood vessels or organs (for a rib).

There's a reason we use medical transport after injuries -- you don't really know what might follow.

If the cost is the concern, using cheap transport isn't the answer. Either socialize the care or force workplaces to pay the EMT fees for workplace injuries. Sending someone in a cab is just not acceptable if a doctor deems medical transport necessary.

Now, all of this hinges on the particulars and accuracy of the description of the situation, which I can't really judge from the outside. But if otherwise independent medical professionals are being urged to reduce ambulance use in order to save face for the factory, that's a real problem. I'm inclined to believe the ousted clinicians and former employees, though.

The problem boils down to the poem being taught in high school when the average American teenager has yet to have made any independent choices, nor have they ever really had to live with the consequences of some decision made when they were a younger, different person.

Most middle class kids live a very scripted lives, but are constantly hammered with the idea that soon they will be called upon to make their own decisions - usually characterized by a binary to continue the scripted path - college, corporate job, marriage in late twenties or thrities - or a second, riskier outlet into 'there be dragons' land. In this context, it's not surprising that the poem has become a concise stand-in and beautiful articulation of contemporary middle class social consensus.

If I'm remembering this correctly, I came across this poem in the wake of a solo startup disaster. And I instantly got the second meaning without any need for literary deconstruction or critical nudging. I vividly remembered the excitement of the choice at the start. I now knew about how we tend to ponder what might have been. And could list many "founder success stories" told ages and ages hence of how I - I chose Angular2, and that has made all the difference.

And that is genius of this poem, that it can (only?) be read differently by those with a certain amount of lived experience. It hides its meaning in plain sight and straight forward vocabulary (unlike Wasteland) and let's the reader insert himself and his entire life into this tiny vignette.

Just one data point: I have two of those screens connected to an iMac Pro. This is a setup officially supported by Apple, but sometimes when waking up the Mac one of the displays doesn't turn on and the only option to get it back to work properly is disconnecting either the power or the USB cable.

Some schools allow undocumented immigrants to enroll, giving them a student ID in the process. I'm not sure what a "state-issued student ID" is, but if it refers to getting a student ID from a state land grant institution I wouldn't be surprised if there are some that allow undocumented immigrants to enroll.

I have nothing at all against allowing undocumented immigrants into our schools, but they probably shouldn't be voting.
The law doesn’t say if you have a broken foot you have to take an ambulance to get treated at the ER.

State law regulates drivers, medical transport is a subsection and medical transport is further broken down into emergency transportation and non-emergency transportation. What the law says is you can’t just start offering medical transportation services to the public in exchange for money without complying with the law/regulations.

Further, as you might imagine doctors are regulated, and if you are treating a patient who needs to be transported to an ER for emergency services, the doctor should understand a Lyft/Uber isn’t the appropriate standard of care and is per se illegal under those facts. The doctor may have had his/her heart in the right place be not calling an abmbulance to reserve that for a hypothetical life/death patient, but it’s hard to argue this isn’t an emergency when your a doctor sending your patient to the ER, at which point emergency medical transportation laws/regulations apply.

> There are parts of the world (for example, Africa) where population has been increasing ridiculously [...]

Africa is big, so it's a very coarse way of narrowing down a location. Population pressure is a multiplier, so people in poor countries with few cars and a diet that does not depend on cross-country transport of food have a smaller impact on environment than fewer people accustomed to a more expensive life style.

> When there's news that the population of Japan is decreasing people talk about it as if it's a catastrophe.

An aging or decreasing population can be a catastrophe, but not because of environmental effects; the concerns are of a social nature, as a shrinking population usually means a reduction in essential services. The one child policy that was active for years in China has left a characteristic mark on the demographics, leading to a small population of young people supporting a large population of old people.
So here's my story about this.

I'm a physician primarily working in an administrative capacity for a large local government (though I also have a background in enterprise computing and did that for several years both full-time and as a consultant). I'd lived through the horrors of the EHR transition at the large HMO I used to work for and was determined not to have that happen again.

We were selecting an EHR product and had it narrowed down to three main products which I won't name here but they're all major players and are still in the market.

I was representing the clinicians, so I selected the product "A" I felt had the best clinical support, the best clinical workflow and the easiest UI slope. So did the nurses who were selecting for nursing staff (we didn't coordinate our choices; we each legitimately felt this was the best product for our respective scopes of practice).

The billers selected the product "B" that had the best reporting and financials.

So, we on the clinical side were asked, can you live with "B"? Well, yeah, sure, I guess? We can make it work, but it's clearly less flexible, the workflow is clunkier, the decision support is less comprehensive and we felt would be more difficult for the physicians. The billers said adamantly that "A" was too much work to deal with the reporting and they wanted something out of the box. They were not willing to compromise despite our concerns on the clinical side, even though we'd have more facetime with the product than they would, and there would be less to bill if the physicians couldn't figure out how.

So the clinicians got overruled by the billers and "B" was selected.

I understand that the billers must have a say, but the billers are dealing with a small portion of the product. The billers managed to convince administration that their concerns were more valuable because their work translated into dollars. As if the clinicians' work didn't? How does that work? And yet I see this occur again and again in other clinical systems.

As a postscript, the local government's rollout of "B" went aground and we ended up with a cheap vanilla install of "D", which wasn't part of the original three and ended up pleasing no one, and is ironically the same EHR I still have PTSD from all those years ago.

Sure, it does offer scaling, but you really want 2x scaling - I tried non-integer values on a 5k display, just to get a sense for it, and it was as disappointing as expected. Slightly blurry text, rather obvious that this wasn‘t the recommended native setting.

In my opinion 2x scaling is the only option and that leaves you with an effective resolution of 1920x1080 points - sure, it‘s sharp, but far from true 5k and more importantly the same screen real estate we used to fit into 20-24 incch displays for years. It‘s the wrong resolution for 27“.
> I evaluate this issue with a Bayesian + max entropy approach.

I have a similar approach to gravity. There are two hypotheses

1. The gravitational field comes about from the curvature of spacetime

2. The ghost of Einstein flies around through all of space at an impossibly high speed nudging all objects such that their trajectories align with what he would find elegant.

Max entropy weights these hypotheses equally. What h̶u̶m̶a̶n̶s̶ planets do is given the highest expectation with #2. Thus, Bayesian hypothesis selection says #2 is the most likely explanation of the evidence. Inference to the best explanation says h̶u̶m̶a̶n̶s̶ ̶a̶r̶e̶ ̶P̶H̶O̶s̶ gravity is Einstein's ghost.

Because it's in all these countries interest to avoid a race-to-the-bottom and being played against each other by companies that only need to move a mailbox to change jurisdictions.

For examples of the same mechanism: Amazon's HQ2 farce aptly shows what happens when jurisdictions cannot effectively coordinate and are forced undercut each other. Is there any doubt that Amazon would settle in some city and hire people and pay taxes without their little version of Hunger Games? So the net effect is simply some city being marginally better of but forgoing the jackpot that would usually come with being chosen, and therefore those citizens having to pay instead.
Plus the harm that comes from Amazon making decisions based on money alone, to the detriment of other factors such as quality-of-life for its employees.

That's why any trade deal includes provisions prohibiting subsidies not covered by a few narrow exemptions: they distort the competition and simply lead to losses in a zero-sum game between nations and private corporations.
Your argument advocating that the gas station increase its prices 4% does not fully consider the fact that businesses are risky, and it does not consider how unfair the situation remains for the owner. If this 4% increase did occur, the new revenue figure is $1,092,000. With $92,000 of profit before tax, the owner is now paying $43,680 of taxes, leaving $48,320 of profit after tax (much better than before). They are still paying 47% taxes on their profit before tax.

The degree to which businesses generate expenses is the majority of the degree to which they take on risk. It's pretty well understood that most economies are already too risk-averse. We should not further punish those willing to take risk.

The thrust of my argument is focused around the fact that low margin businesses would have an EXTREMELY high sensitivity to variable cash flows. I should have focused more on how unfair this is to small businesses, which already are a risky proposition. It is strange to me that multiple people have replied without having any acknowledgement of this.

The benefits of taxation must be balanced against the potential for abuse and the damage it does to the businesses that are taxed.

Taxing revenue would likely have less potential for abuse, but I would argue the damage it would do to the economy would be much larger than the benefit this may provide.
This attitude is why American cities aren’t real places. Yes, being forced to move far away, as in the Bay Area where we evict people from Oakland and expect them to live in Antoich, is highly disruptive to lives. It severs friendships, increases travel, and all manner of negative effects.
" If you don't have enough ambulances to cover the interventions then just buy more ambulances. "

No, this is kind of a naive position.

The OP's comment is to a great extent valid.

Ambulances and their staff are extremely expensive.

Do you think in Brazil, France or Japan money just grows on trees and you can just magically buy more stuff?

Medical systems the world over are failing under understaffing and over demand - and a considerable amount of the demand is small stuff.

There are many people in socialized systems who go to the clinic/hospital with great frequency - any old thing: see the doctor. It's hugely, hugely expensive. In some cases it's merited, and I understand it's a moral dilemma because often you don't know if something is serious ...

But Emergency care in particular is bonkers expensive, even by cost not profit ... and there's no getting around it.

If people need to call an Ambulance, then get one.

But if you don't need one, get in a car and go or have someone drive you.

It doesn't matter what 'system' it's in because everything associated with 'Emerg' is very costly to the system, and it will always be a very scarce resource.

I wouldn't let anyone at my company decide for me though - if I needed one I would call.
