While I’m on the subject, on top of my increased health care costs that I’m incurring, I also have to subscribe to Lifelock<\/a> to protect my personal information because the government are such incompetent boobs that they can’t transport my information from point A to point B with out losing it. (Washington Post<\/a> link)<\/p>\n

Letters are being sent this month and next to the homes of all 4.9 million Tricare military beneficiaries whose personal data has been stolen in one of the largest health-data breaches ever reported.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

According to Tricare, they lost all of our addresses and Social Security numbers back on September 12th when a bumbling idiot contractor had it stolen from his car when transporting the tapes to a back up facility. I suppose, instead of going directly to the facility, he stopped off for a half-dozen Boston Creme donuts and got himself robbed.<\/p>\n

Tricare also says they reported the theft on their website, and you know we all check the Tricare website almost daily…that’s why they have to send us letters three months later.<\/p>\n

So that’s another $100\/year I’ve spent over the last eight years since the first time the government lost my shit to thieves. Ya know every other entity on the planet transmits that stuff securely, but government contractors have to ferry that stuff around in their POVs. Every time that stuff is stolen, it seems like it was taken from an unattended car. Except that time someone stole a contractor’s laptop at his home. Silly ne, I lock my computers up in a 600-pound gun safe.<\/p>\n

And it’s always veterans and retirees who get their stuff stolen.<\/p>\n

Is this what we have to look forward to when the government manages all of our health care records?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
