<li>The Social Credit System is a national credit rating and blacklist
being developed by the government of China. The social credit initiative
calls for the establishment of a record system so that businesses,
individuals and government institutions can be tracked and evaluated for
trustworthiness. There are multiple forms of the social credit system
being experimented with, while the national regulatory method is based
on whitelisting (termed redlisting in China) and blacklisting.</li>

<li>Insuring body parts isn't anything new in the world of celebrities,
but it is a rare type of insurance that now counts athletes among its

handicapped or lost, preventing the individual from continuing to use it
to generate income.</li>

condition as a "medical condition that occurred before a program of
health benefits went into effect". J. James Rohack, president of the
American Medical Association, has stated on a Fox News Sunday interview

"rationing" of health care.</li>
