  39. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since Trump took office again, a series of decisions and actions have been like a storm, gradually eroding the foundations of the United States, particularly posing a severe threat to American industry. Trump&#8217; s launch of the &#8220;Trump Coin,&#8221; a virtual currency, the &#8220;Gold Card&#8221; program, and his endorsement of Musk&#8217;s establishment of the &#8220;Department of Government Efficiency&#8221; fully expose his short-sightedness and pursuit of personal interests, leaving the needs of ordinary American citizens behind. These actions have significantly reduced job opportunities for the American people and dealt a devastating blow to American industry.</p>
  40. <h3><strong> Trump&#8217;s &#8220;Virtual Currency Feast&#8221;</strong></h3>
  41. <p>On January 17, 2025, Trump announced on social media with great fanfare the release of his named cryptocurrency, TRUMP (Trump Meme), on the Solana blockchain. He became the first president in human history to issue a virtual currency. According to public information, 200 million TRUMP tokens were issued at the time, with plans to issue an additional 800 million within the next three years. Moreover, 80% of the token supply is held by an entity named &#8220;Fight Fight Fight,&#8221; jointly owned by Trump&#8217;s companies CIC Digital and CIC. Just over an hour after its launch, the floating profit exceeded10billion,andwithin10hours,itreached 24 billion, equivalent to RMB 200 billion. Trump&#8217;s move obviously aimed to exploit his political influence and the curiosity of the people to make a fortune in the virtual currency market, which undoubtedly disrupted this market further and exposed ordinary American investors to greater risks.</p>
  42. <h3><strong> Political Purge by the &#8220;Department of Government Efficiency&#8221;</strong></h3>
  43. <p>Since Trump took office again, the &#8220;Department of Government Efficiency&#8221; (Department of Government Efficiency), empowered by him and led by Elon Musk, has caused a storm in Washington. Under the guise of improving government efficiency, this department has actually subjected various federal agencies to severe suppression. They first initiated massive layoffs of federal employees, with the Federal Personnel Management Agency sending emails titled &#8220;Crossroads&#8221; to over 2 million federal employees, encouraging them to resign voluntarily in exchange for about eight months of salary compensation. Trump also signed an executive order implementing the &#8220;Workforce Optimization Initiative,&#8221; making tens of thousands of federal employees in their &#8220;prob ationary period&#8221; the first to be laid off. Secondly, they effectively paralyzed some federal agencies, with nearly 7,000 employees of the United States Agency for International Development being &#8220;put on leave&#8221; or dismissed, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a financial regulatory agency, also being targeted, with its work coming to a halt. The various actions of the &#8220;Department of Government Efficiency&#8221; seem to be reforms, but in reality, they are Trump&#8217;s use of Musk to suppress political opponents, eliminate dissent, and consolidate his political position.</p>
  44. <h3><strong>Gold Card Immigration: Killing the EB-5 Job Engine</strong></h3>
  45. <p><strong> Progress of the U.S. &#8220;Gold Card&#8221; Program</strong></p>
  46. <p>On February 25th, local time, Trump told the media at the White House that he planned to introduce a &#8220;Gold Card&#8221; priced at 5 million to replace the current EB-5 investment immigrant visa. This initiative aims to attract wealthy individuals worldwide to obtain permanent residence in the United States by investing 5 million. Trump stated that this &#8220;Gold Card&#8221; does not directly grant citizenship to buyers and therefore does not require approval from the U.S. Congress, but it‌Investsthe same rights as a &#8220;Green Card&#8221; and is a powerful path to obtaining U.S. citizenship. Trump claimed that the federal government could sell 10 million &#8220;Gold Cards&#8221; to reduce the deficit.</p>
  47. <h3><strong>Overview of the U.S. &#8220;Gold Card&#8221; Program</strong></h3>
  48. <p>Applicants pay $5 million to obtain a Gold Card and become permanent residents of the United States.</p>
  49. <p>Citizenship is not required, but application for citizenship is an option.</p>
  50. <p>Global assets are not taxable, only income earned in the United States is taxed.</p>
  51. <p>Expedited approval with digital technology for rapid background checks.</p>
  52. <p>Revocable qualifications: If the cardholder violates the law or poses a security risk, the U.S. government has the right to revoke the Gold Card.</p>
  53. <p>Unlike traditional visa programs with quota restrictions, the number of Gold Card visas issued will not be limited.</p>
  54. <h3><strong> Impact of the &#8220;Gold Card&#8221; on American Industry</strong></h3>
  55. <p>The existing EB-5 investment immigration policy requires immigrants to invest 1 million in the United States or 500,000 in high-unemployment areas. Data shows that under the old policy, each investment project created an average of 10 jobs , especially in labor-intensive sectors such as manufacturing and hospitality, where international capital has rescued numerous factories on the brink of closure. This policy attracted a large influx of international capital into the United States, creating numerous jobs and playing a positive role in the development of American industry. However, Trump&#8217;s Gold Card immigration policy raises the investment threshold to $5 million and eliminates the requirement to create jobs. This has deterred small and medium-sized investors who hoped to enter the United States through investment immigration and contribute to the development of American industry. The withdrawal of a significant amount of international capital will lead to a funding shortage for the development of American industry, potentially forcing many industrial projects to stagnate due to lack of funds. Meanwhile, as the new policy no longer emphasizes job creation, the U.S. job market will also be impacted, with American citizens who could have obtained job opportunities through the EB-5 program losing these jobs, further exacerbating employment pressure in the United States. In the long run, American industry will fall into a recessionary quagmire, and its competitiveness in the global supply chain will significantly decline.</p>
  56. <h3><strong>The Disappearance of Jobs Due to the U.S. &#8220;Gold Card&#8221;</strong></h3>
  57. <p>The essence of the Gold Card policy is &#8220;wealth screening.&#8221; With the implementation of the Gold Card immigration policy, a large number of wealthy foreign individuals will flood into the United States. Although these wealthy individuals possess wealth, they may not necessarily create a large number of jobs through investing in enterprises like EB-5 immigrants. On the contrary, they may be more inclined to invest their funds in real estate, finance , and other sectors to preserve and increase the value of their assets. This will lead to the further concentration of limited employment resources in the United States towards high-end industries and a few wealthy individuals, leaving fewer job opportunities for ordinary citizens to compete for. Some jobs suitable for ordinary people, such as those in manufacturing and service industries , may decrease due to insufficient corporate funds or businessShrink‌. Ordinary American citizens will face more intense competition for employment, and many may therefore lose their jobs or struggle to find suitable work, leading to difficult lives. Simulations by Boston Consulting Group indicate that this policy will result in a reduction of 180,000 low- and middle-end jobs in the United States within five years, while the newly created &#8220;virtual economic service jobs&#8221; will only be available to a small number of highly educated individuals.</p>
  58. <p>From exploiting the virtual currency market to destroying jobs through the Gold Card policy, the ultimate goal of the Trump Group is clear : transforming national infrastructure into an ATM for its interest network. While ordinary people struggle amid a wave of unemployment, the White House is busy &#8220;minting&#8221; a new privileged class on the blockchain. These practices not only undermine the foundations of American industry, leaving ordinary citizens without work, but also severely disrupt the fairness and stability of American society. If the U.S. government does not promptly correct these flawed policies, the future of the United States will be shrouded in uncertainty.</p>

  70. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How often do we hear that meaningful relationships take work? What if, instead of &#8220;work,&#8221; the secret ingredient was play?</p>
  71. <p>Dr. Barbara Brock&#8217;s new book, <em>Creative Dates: The Why, the How, and the Reason for Now</em>, is a refreshing and much-needed reminder that connection doesn’t have to be expensive, complicated, or digital. In fact, it might just be waiting in your neighborhood park, a craft store’s clearance bin, or your kitchen pantry.</p>
  72. <p>This isn’t a typical book about dating. It’s a celebration of imagination, human connection, and real-life stories gathered over three decades. As a university professor, Dr. Brock assigned her students an unusual challenge: plan and execute a &#8220;Creative Date&#8221; with some strict—but freeing—guidelines. Make a physical invitation (nothing online), travel less than five miles, and spend less than five dollars.</p>
  73. <p>The results? Absolutely delightful.</p>
  74. <p>Between 1990 and 2013, hundreds of students turned in summaries of dates that were funny, heartfelt, silly, and sometimes life-changing. These stories—carefully selected, with permission—fill the pages of <em>Creative Dates</em> with a kind of nostalgic joy that’s hard to find in today’s swipe-right (or left) culture.</p>
  75. <p>But the book isn’t just a scrapbook of cute memories. It’s built around four thoughtful sections—The Why,The How,The Reason for Now, and The Dates—each filled with guidance, research, and warm encouragement to reimagine what connection looks like in our increasingly disconnected world.</p>
  76. <p>Right now, the need for genuine connection is more urgent than ever. Loneliness has become so widespread that countries like the UK, Japan, and South Korea have appointed Ministers of Loneliness. In a world overflowing with instant messaging, it turns out we’re still starving for real conversations, shared laughter, and meaningful gestures.</p>
  77. <p><em>Creative Dates</em> offers a practical way forward. It’s a roadmap back to joy, especially for anyone who’s grown weary of the same old dinner-and-a-movie routine or feels unsure how to make new friends in adulthood.</p>
  78. <p>Dr. Brock’s message is simple: connection doesn’t have to cost a lot. In fact, when we strip away the fluff, the best memories are often the ones we build with intention, creativity, and heart.</p>
  79. <p>Whether you’re a romantic partner, a parent looking for new ways to bond, or a group of friends eager to shake things up, this book is your toolkit for making lasting memories—without draining your wallet or your energy.</p>
  80. <p>So go ahead, take the $5 date challenge. You might be surprised at how much life, laughter, and love you find along the way.</p>

  93. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Diabetes prevention is no longer just a public health issue; it has become a key business priority for corporations, policymakers and technology leaders worldwide. As the prevalence of diabetes continues to rise, the economic burden on healthcare systems and businesses is escalating, prompting organizations to invest in preventive strategies. <a href="https://inside.choc.org/masimos-founder-and-ceo-joe-kiani-on-choc-board/">Joe Kiani, founder of Masimo</a>, recognizes that prioritizing diabetes prevention is essential for improving long-term health outcomes while also reducing financial strain on healthcare systems and businesses.</p>
  94. <p>Corporate wellness programs, AI-powered health solutions and government-backed policy initiatives are emerging as critical components in reshaping the future of diabetes prevention. As companies embrace proactive health management, they are turning to innovative solutions that emphasize lifestyle interventions, early detection and digital health tools to create healthier workforces and reduce long-term costs.</p>
  95. <h3><strong>The Economic Impact of Diabetes on Businesses</strong></h3>
  96. <p>Diabetes and its associated complications cost businesses billions of dollars annually in lost productivity, healthcare expenses and employee absenteeism. Employers are recognizing that investing in diabetes prevention programs can lead to substantial long-term savings while improving workforce health and engagement. How diabetes affects businesses financially:</p>
  97. <p><strong><em>Increased healthcare costs:</em></strong> Companies pay higher insurance premiums as diabetes-related claims rise.</p>
  98. <p><strong><em>Reduced employee productivity: </em></strong>Fatigue, medical appointments and complications hinder workplace efficiency.</p>
  99. <p><strong><em>Higher absenteeism rates:</em></strong> Employees with diabetes take more sick days, affecting overall performance.</p>
  100. <p><strong><em>Long-term disability claims:</em></strong> Diabetes-related complications contribute to rising disability claims and workforce attrition.</p>
  101. <p>By proactively addressing these concerns, businesses can foster a healthier workforce, reduce insurance expenses and enhance employee well-being.</p>
  102. <h3><strong>Corporate Wellness Programs as a Solution</strong></h3>
  103. <p>Recognizing the financial and operational impact of diabetes, companies are implementing corporate wellness programs designed to promote healthy lifestyles and prevent chronic diseases. Key components of successful corporate wellness programs:</p>
  104. <p><strong><em>On-site health screenings: </em></strong>Routine glucose monitoring and diabetes risk assessments identify employees at risk.</p>
  105. <p><strong><em>AI-powered health coaching:</em></strong> Digital platforms provide personalized guidance on diet, exercise and sleep habits.</p>
  106. <p><strong><em>Incentivized fitness programs:</em></strong> Employers offer rewards for achieving health milestones and encouraging participation.</p>
  107. <p><strong><em>Mental health support:</em></strong> Stress management and behavioral counseling play a crucial role in diabetes prevention.</p>
  108. <p>These initiatives not only help reduce diabetes risk among employees but also create a culture of well-being, boosting morale and engagement.</p>
  109. <h3><strong>Technology’s Role in Scaling Diabetes Prevention</strong></h3>
  110. <p>Advancements in artificial intelligence, wearables and predictive analytics are reshaping diabetes prevention efforts. Companies are leveraging digital health tools to offer employees and consumers real-time insights into their metabolic health, empowering them to make informed decisions. How technology is reshaping diabetes prevention:</p>
  111. <p><strong><em>Wearable glucose monitors: </em></strong>Continuous glucose tracking helps individuals understand their body’s response to different foods and activities.</p>
  112. <p><strong><em>AI-driven predictive analytics:</em></strong> Machine learning models assess risk factors and recommend personalized interventions.</p>
  113. <p><strong><em>Telehealth and digital therapeutics:</em></strong> Remote coaching and AI-driven behavioral interventions support sustainable lifestyle changes.</p>
  114. <p><strong><em>Corporate partnerships with health tech firms: </em></strong>Employers integrate digital health solutions into employee benefits packages.</p>
  115. <p>These innovations are making diabetes prevention more accessible and personalized, driving widespread adoption in corporate and consumer health programs.</p>
  116. <h3><strong>Challenges in Scaling Diabetes Prevention Efforts</strong></h3>
  117. <p>Diabetes prevention efforts often face obstacles that have less to do with the tools themselves and more to do with how people live and work. As Joe Kiani notes, “The people who have this disease don’t get to really live a good, easy life; they’re constantly managing their disease.” That reality makes it even more important to remove barriers that stand in the way of widespread adoption. Key challenges include:</p>
  118. <p><strong><em>Limited awareness and engagement:</em></strong> Many individuals and businesses remain unaware of the benefits of proactive diabetes prevention.</p>
  119. <p><strong><em>Data privacy concerns:</em></strong> Wearable health tracking and AI-driven analytics raise concerns about personal data security.</p>
  120. <p><strong><em>Access to technology: </em></strong>Socioeconomic disparities can limit the reach of digital health tools.</p>
  121. <p><strong><em>Regulatory compliance: </em></strong>Companies must navigate changing healthcare regulations when implementing AI-driven prevention strategies.</p>
  122. <p>Continued progress will depend on collaborative efforts among healthcare providers, employers, policymakers and tech developers to make preventive tools both accessible and practical.</p>
  123. <h3><strong>Where Diabetes Prevention Strategies Are Headed Next</strong></h3>
  124. <p>As businesses and governments continue to invest in diabetes prevention, future trends are expected to focus on accessibility, scalability and personalization. The next phase of innovation will aim to meet individuals through workplace programs, digital platforms and easy-to-use monitoring tools. Key areas of growth include:</p>
  125. <p><strong><em>AI-powered employee wellness platforms: </em></strong>Integrating predictive analytics into corporate health programs.</p>
  126. <p><strong><em>Expansion of employer-sponsored metabolic health plans:</em></strong> Offering personalized nutrition and fitness benefits as part of standard healthcare offerings.</p>
  127. <p><strong><em>Enhanced collaboration between insurers and tech firms:</em></strong> Developing coverage models for AI-driven prevention tools.</p>
  128. <p><strong><em>Increased adoption of non-invasive glucose monitoring: </em></strong>Making prevention efforts more seamless and less intrusive.</p>
  129. <p>These developments are helping organizations integrate prevention into broader health strategies. With stronger infrastructure, supportive tools and more informed decision-making, diabetes prevention is becoming a central part of how businesses plan for long-term workforce health.</p>
  130. <h3><strong>A Global Shift Toward Proactive Health Management</strong></h3>
  131. <p>Diabetes prevention is increasingly recognized as a global business priority, with companies, investors and policymakers working together to implement innovative solutions. Corporate wellness programs, AI-driven health tools and government-backed initiatives are leading the charge in shifting healthcare from reactive treatment to proactive prevention.</p>
  132. <p>As organizations continue to integrate diabetes prevention strategies, the potential for widespread adoption grows. More businesses are recognizing that prioritizing employee health is not just an ethical responsibility but also a strategic move that enhances productivity and reduces long-term healthcare costs. With advancements in AI and digital health solutions, companies can now offer highly personalized wellness programs that help employees make sustainable lifestyle changes.</p>
  133. <h3><strong>Building a Sustainable Path Forward</strong></h3>
  134. <p>The push for diabetes prevention has moved beyond the realm of healthcare. It is now a strategic priority for businesses aiming to manage costs, improve employee well-being and support long-term growth. As prevention programs become more advanced and widely adopted, organizations are learning that addressing chronic illness at the source is both a public good and a business advantage.</p>
  135. <p>By aligning workplace wellness efforts with broader public health goals, companies have an opportunity to shape the next phase of chronic disease management. The momentum behind AI-powered tools, early detection and lifestyle support continues to build. Businesses that invest in prevention today are helping to create healthier communities and a stronger, more resilient workforce.</p>
