Human Genome Sequencing is Free from Nebula Genomics Using Blockchain

Nebula Genomics offers free human genome sequencing. Sign up for free and get matched with research institutions to get free genomic sequencing and other rewards.

Harvard Scientist George Church is one of the co-founders of Nebula Genomics.

Nebula Genomics liberates genomic big data by making privacy protected individual records scattered across many systems available on a single network where researchers can access and analyze them.

Their blockchain technology eliminates middlemen and connects data buyers directly with data owners, who store and control their own data. They use privacy-enhancing technologies to keep that data secure when owners choose to share it. Because of this direct connection, consumers can be rewarded for participating in the community and compensated for sharing data.

Let's take out some of the funding for weaponry and take care of those that put their lives on the line.  It also shouldn't matter if that Vet makes 10,00 a year of 100,000.  If you served your time in the military and were honorably discharged than you earned that benefit.  Those who supposedly make too much income to qualify for benefits is BS.  These people earned it regardless of what they did after their service to the country is complete.  I know you didn't mean my perspective but you got it anyway.......LOL

Too much inertia. Too many people with self-preservation in mind who can't make hard decisions. You can't move forward if you have to convince all those people of your ideas, especially if it will change their lives.

If we provided a national healthcare system the need for a full-featured VA system, or a Workman's Comp, or County Hospitals - they'd all go away. The Vets would still need some care specific to their experiences (a la Agent Orange), but an entire independent system of hospitals, etc? Gone, replaced with a national electronically connected system available to all vets, all poor, all injured.

We already spend more per capita than a lot of other nations, and have worse outcomes.

Its a pathetic system.  I deal with it everyday in my industry.  Part of the reason why I don't understand the giant vet base of Trump supporters.
 

Is that like the giant women's base of support for Hillary Clinton? Asking for a friend...

If the state of the VA is a litmus test for support of an administration; pretty sure vets should not have supported ANY of our Presidents.  Either that or the VA has only been messed up for 2 years, but I'm pretty sure that is not right.  Vet support of Trump has nothing to do with health care I assure you. Right or wrong it is all about attraction to machismo persona from our warrior class.   Alpha male stuff. {#War}
