Sharing accelerating since summer but heres the kicker with all of this happening other patients or doctors were notified so of course the 1st question thats going to be raised does this agreement fit within hipaa laws which are designed to safeguard to protect medical information ascension says that it does and that no hipaa laws are being broken. But we also now know this that at least 150. 00 google employees already have access to much of the data on tens of millions of patients again google insists that they are in compliance with federal law so the next question does this agreement put your private information at risk by allowing a monster tech company like google to have access to this information and how will google use it to answer that question were joined by dr John Dombrowski a Pain Management physician with the Washington Pain Center thanks for being with us so when the wall street journal broke the story monday google admitted that ok you know its not a big deal you know a lot of doctors and patients dont even know whos handling the back end of technology acting as if this is a department right thats not at all what this is as a doctor number one is it common to know where those d Health Records are going and secondly how different is it when those Health Records are going to google it makes a big difference now we have Electronic Medical records everyone is digitized before when you have that paper record no one knew you had tremendous privacy the government has forced physicians to be digitized so its easy to access that record data birth Social Security numbers diagnosis all this is very important and again id really this is news to me now theyre going to say the happy face of google we want to make your life easier doctor better diagnoses smarter diagnoses better lab reports for that i applaud them but this data has tremendous value multimillion dollars whos going to get the benefit of that does the Health Care System get that money that theyre being for or whatever so thats very important other thing that i find interesting why do you need to know patient names why wasnt blanked out or social hows that relevant maybe your ag or sir where were you live ok that could be helpful hypertension demographics not so helpful but these other things thats kind of curious for sure now google appears to be using this information to design new software which would be underpinned by a i Artificial Intelligence and machine learning. Which would then 0 in on patients and suggesting changes to their health care and if thats something that could be useful are does that undermine the actual role of a doctor or a physician i think we as physicians eat as many tools as possible and thats great i applaud technology but i dont want technology be used to short circuit the doctor patient relationship that is 1st and foremost we now see patients will go on google and they look on the internet this is my diagnosis they come to me to tell me this is what i have a goal thats a good start it starts a conversation but you should never forget what medical education is about all these tools are great but they should not you know for gold medical education or for sure something about this story stinks several things i think one of those is the fact that google has said to the reporter so far who have questions about it that no money changing hands were not even paying for this were just doing this for free nothings free you know but we also know in our own firm friends that is reporting on this later tonight that there are reports that ascension in the walky for instance was getting ready to close maybe 4 hospitals this was in april of 2018 theyre going to close 4 hospitals were talking about that possibly scaling back another 4 hospitals and then suddenly they got an infusion of 25000000000. 00 no one seems to know where that came from i think well probably find out soon but suddenly this money you know kind of floods in and then they start acquiring companies at the same time a big shift for a company that says were about to close hospitals and now suddenly is doing this what google is doing is theyre taking medical information on possibly as many as 50000000 people and theyre using it to build out a Business Model and this is clearly not being done for the greater good this is developing business so the question is why shouldnt google have to seek permission from these individuals if youre going to build a business based on health care and develop these tools why not seek their permission to see that in the state of california the state of california has to make made laws that say if youre getting this information on our public you should pay me for the. Information is valuable information is power and that creates a lot of money and i actually had a hostel here in washington d. C. That closed i used to help out there teach there so its very funny but i mean they its a catholic they do a lot of good work and they certainly do need an infusion of cash and perhaps google has provided them now google isnt the only company whos pushing for access to developing health care tools facebook also recently announced a Similar Initiative to create a system that takes user profiles to recommend health care checks but what google has done goes far beyond us so at what point does Technology Start interfering with the Health Care Sector rather than supporting it so lets take the positive you know i see you have these eating habits or Something Like that you go out a lot you know maybe you should to cut back on your salt to your caloric intake or so i got and then that starts again the conversation but again sometimes they could be very intrusive how do they know i was looking to go to the bahamas you know all this sort of stuff but im just going to say a very happy way that made this information could be used for good obviously its a double bed sword we always have to be cautious with that and certainly patients or the Health Care Industry should be paid for this very because were going to create a bill multibillion dollar industry for you for keeping these patients healthy and fascinating story well have to keep up dr John DombrowskiPain Management specialist at the Washington Pain Center thank you so much thanks. Troubled we work start up now controlled by softbank is in discussions to hire the infamous fixer john the c. E. O. Of teen mobile and managed to turn t.

Some very big news for a big point on tuesday is the Chinese State news agency actually published a front page editorial on bitcoin for its millions of readers know china has long had an official stance against big coin even though there is a huge underground market in the country but the official chinese stance on big coin has been warming for instance the state news out of the peoples daily recently called blog chain a breaking point for the country to overtake with this latest article which for the 1st time actually focused on big point itself acted as an explainer of big and it marks a significant policy change toward the worlds leading cryptocurrency again this in this is a very big deal because the article refers to because as the quote 1st successful application of Block Chain Technology. End quote and that is leading to speculation that china could be considering lifting its controversial ban on big going trading which was imposed in 20172 other things to keep in mind one just 2 weeks ago president xi actually urged the industry to accelerate the development of Block Chain Technology and to just one week ago china quietly removed him from the list of Economic Activities that were no longer to be encouraged and this you know kristie you know this is a very big deal because if president moves in this direction and they actually legalize big mining and push for big point i mean you could see that that number skyrocket has a full strength of the Government Support behind it and thats the thing when youre looking at a one party system such as china when they decide to do something the entire country follows through in a very very powerful way weve seen that already in the last 2 decades where china said were not going to be a manufacturing country anymore were not going to be made in china anymore were going to be consumed in china after that within a span of 20 years the entire nation turns basically from a Manufacturing Base country into a consumption based country and thats something thats so impressive in order to lift that entire 60 percent of population like that and then its true to the chinese are much more ready it feels like to pursue bitcoin than probably any other major nation in the world because theyre so technologically advanced theyre champing at the bit for it so its kind of interesting too that president xi is kind of becoming like hero in the big korean world that theyre starting to see him in this very positive way exactly and as you mentioned the entire market was previously underground so now they finally have a chance to come back up when 90 percent of trading is already in asia and china is the undisputed leader of the coin mine in the 1st place its a big deal tire hang here for a quick break but hang here because when we return fires continue to blanket many parts of california but for many the fight for their homes has just begun arky correspondent atocha sweet brings us the latest on the controversy.

The new york fed added 112000000000. 00 to the Financial Markets via temporary operations tuesday the liquidity additions came in 2 parts one was an overnight repos tolly 76940000000. 00 and the other 35000000014. 00 days this was all done in order to help maintain the fed funds rate within its target range now when the fed 1st started pumping billions of dollars into the repo markets back in september they said this would be a short term liquidity injection that this was a Technical Glitch due to the end of quarter and Tax Obligations yet 2 months later the fed continues these emerge. Urgency interventions if this was a short term plumbing problem why is it still continuing then when the problems still persisted the fed announced that it would resume pomo injecting 375000000000 each year for the next couple of years apparently this is not q. E. Because the fed will do so organically but language games aside its q e on steroids the feds bailout operations have increased its Balance Sheet by over 250000000000 dollars since september and now its not just the short term liquidity that has dried up but it has spread to the c. L. O. Markets the collateralized Loan Obligations market fell 5 percent in october while the equity index has soared to new all time highs these declines in the 680000000000. 00 market could be a warning for the one trillion dollars junk bonds market as c. L. O. Bonds are made up of just below Investment Grade or leveraged corporate loans traders are worried about the health of the market as the double be rated c. L. O. Bonds are now just about 5 percent higher than the yield of similar junk bonds and that is the widest spread since early 2 1016. 00 when declining oil prices triggered a massive sell off in leverage loans and with more we bring back. Of economics and on patriotic and author of can we avoid another financial crisis so steve were seeing some unprecedented growth in Central BanksBalance Sheet right now it is growing at literally twice as fast as the last time they enacted q e so what are the repercussions and impacts of this on the Financial Markets. Well the trades are implying the loss of course the Financial Markets since 2000 and and of course in the process itself when banki in the belief that propping up reserves would create loans which is the stupid to export model the mainstream economists still here share that totally changed the nature of the as an off market so they used to mind trying to set a reserve right by using know the. Floor and ceiling or color approach where you you have a you have a target in the middle and you can basically because theres a trivial level of funds in the market itself you can slot it even to daily basis and maintain it within that house that the senate band but when they decided to pump these assholes on enormous scale i mean they the q. E. Was huge weapon and it was even even bigger than that so hes rescued during the beginning of the at the early stage of the financial process thats completely changed the nature of the market and i think thats forgotten what to do thats half whats actually going on here the experience they had theyve lost over the last decade theyve produced in a brave new world that they dont understand themselves and they dont understand themselves so the 1st round of quantitative easing back in 2008 it didnt really do what was promised it was supposed to be this infusion right that was going to restore the economy and get things rolling again but as he said it kind of made us an addict it was like being injected and now we cant get off this thing. Thats a little im going to go back in 2012 which was the early days of q. E. And self purely began about 2013 that was the ninetys panic rescue during the process which is back in september of 2008 which at thats where youre thinking about there and he trembled for my 100800 1000000000 to 2. 4 trillion it literally in in one month but when they began q. E. The philosophy was that this would generate a wealth of 6 and the wealth effect would cause consumers to spend more and that would boost the economy and fix everything up well 1st of all the wealth effect only into the wealthy. If because that would boosting the process of existing shares remember they had the s. And p. Bottomed at 666. 00 i love that number 666. 00 points and then was turned around by q. E. You know if there was 4 times that and its holding the cost of the the the reserve isnt that bad that being theyve been flooded with by borrowing junk arms off the Financial Sector or otherwise known as q. A. Theyve got to do something with the cash they buy shoes and that benefits the wealthy not the not the poor now we know the full spend money when they get it we know the wealthy pretty much relatively speaking darrent and in fact even the Federal Reserve published the piper saying that they theres no wealth effect from shares and there was also supposed to be the trickle down effect and that also never materialized at all so this year alone 37. 00 Central Banks have participated in monetary easing whether it was through lowering the fed funds rate target or open Market Operations or purchasing securities and treasuries the fed now just printed more money out of thin air than in the entire big quines market cap so at some point what in society would in country what in the people at the consumers who never saw any of this money stop trusting the part to think power of legal tender. Well i think the money an enemy that capitalism faces is now classical economics in whatever form that tags and i would normally dismiss an argument like that because ultimately say that money rules in a unit in a country because of the. The power of the government itself to enforce those wishes. But youre really have people doing moronic stuff with with banking because theyre following economic textbooks which all the Central Banks slightly maltman locking was like the bank of england and the moon is fact the center on the whole idea of creating reserves you dont create laws is wrong its not have banks operate but i think that mindset still dominates the Federal Reserve so this this prototype of easing is a pact with the devil because if you stop trying to build a ship crosses into become dependent on on that big boost of ship process by you buying bonds and on it goes to buying the Financial Sector buying shares. They get beholden to raj singh said market now theyve got to the stage where this and p. Is only doing more of the value relative to learnings twice in its history once was 2000 which was the biggest of the valuation in history on the nasdaq crash the 2nd was not in 29 so were just back in a situation where every time the markets go down theyre going to pump it back up again they can do it indefinitely but its creating a totally out of official world so i think the credibility is declining identical decided with the context of apparently. One of the best things because it has got on board as the Federal Reserve state we have about 30 seconds left so we ask you very quickly you know there is talk now about using mildly negative those negative policy rates in order to help to keep pushing the economy up at what point do savings ultimately be there the going to be rated for everyone if the fed continues to push this idea of 0 Interest Rates even into negative Interest Rates i get about 30 seconds here its crazy is going to thats just undermining the Pension Funds which are a lot on im excited in this room from the bad effects of the Bank Accounts to some extent on this so youre undermining the the votes of people whose retirement incomes are on the as far as again as it gets the Federal Reserve is leading the fight against capitalism which is not exactly what its trying to do but thats what its shaving professor of economics on paper and steve hanke project having a.
