Change Healthcare works with some of the biggest healthcare companies in the Portland metro area, such as Providence and Kaiser Permanente, a medical worker said.

    Dear hackers, can you hack into the department of housing and urban development (HUD)? And wipe out the entire balance of FHA mortgages???
    If you really wanna disrupt the American government and make the banks suffer, while helping the working class, that's how you do it 😂....
    Don't bother with insurance lol

      I get it. A lot of 'progress' is just modernizing things that don't need to be simply because they can. But to blanketly reject everything modern is, well, dumb.

      @@dougsholly9323 It worked fine for me and got the job done without many headaches. The Internet has become dangerous with so many scams and hackers out to take our money and with everything about a single person now available online somewhere to look at and conveniently set up to be attacked at the whim of criminals. Plus I get tired of having to keep that cellphone charged all the time and when the power goes out, I'm stuck.

      ​@@dougsholly9323I don't think there is much time for thoughts in the news industry theses days as the load of work on a reporter is so much these days. Not sure in this case for this station; though these days a lot of them are shooting their own shot and editing the story themself so there is no second person looking at it for a lot of cases these days. Just seen (elsewhere) a story repeating a press release line saying ~2 AM this past Sunday when there was a time change for daylight savings time so there was no 2 AM as it jumps to 3 AM (maybe for a second though). As this reply digresses between keeping ST and DT I would prefer standard time to be permanent and not what was just switched to (in most of the U.S.A.).

And the immigration across the border, receiving better benefits the legal people under this administration.
