From what I've come to believe, still so after reading the article, is that most of the vitamins you intake are passed through urine. For whatever reason. I do think some have more uptake than others, but the most and only true fire way to ensure you're getting all the essential vitamins is through your diet. I won't preach what constitutes a healthy and balanced diet, but from my understanding the vitamin absorption through digestable foods is far superior to taking a multivitamin, especially when using them to cover some supposed deficient one likely has

I'm not sure there is any one right answer to who should provide the oversight. I feel like every possible entity is vulnerable to outside pressure and influence, individuals deceitfully involving themselves, as well as the infallibility and bias of the more earnest, well intended individual.

As a medium, paper ballots are the way to go, with anonymity tied in, allowing some sort of general public observance of a logical, defacto tallying process.

If such a process exists, I have no clue and maybe that's just a pipe dream. Anyhow, here's to the 2020 election

Neurological biotech always grabs my attention. From what I put together from reading this article, a over simplified summary is that they managed to put a device into a mouse's brain that can reciprocate cartridges of a drug, which is then remotely administored. When it comes to this field this is the kind of thing I see in the near future panning out. I know there is a lot of advancement in the 'brain to computer interface' area of biotech, the sort of technology a Black Mirror episode may be based on, but in my incredibly ignorant opinion this is the sort of technology that'll come to fruition in the near future for this field. Rereading this post, maybe the two are incredibly unrelated, but I'll stand by my statement that this path is much more feasible than other recent news about the field. I'm interested to hear others thoughts

I'm not saying China is unstable. My implication was that maybe these massive USA based corporations might see China as more stable for business continuity. I know production is totally different, and understand some of the reasons for moving it to China. While I do not imagine them leaving, what do you think would happen if America lost these massive, global corporations to their biggest rival?

Back in the day, my international economics professor told me corporations will set up, and base their business out of the countries that they see as the most stable. Because of this, it scares me when I see headlines like this, even though it is only production. If anyone has a counterpoint to what he said, I am very interested in hearing it
