Imagine, for a moment, that your government is evil.
Not misguided, not just something you disagree with-- but evil.
They killed thousands of your own people, you're still not really sure why yet-- you've got some idea, yeah, but you don't know why. Probably a distraction.
They used those deaths to declare war left, right and center to hide that they're slowly strangling the rights of those inside of the country, too.
If they did something this big, now, they must've done smaller things for years and just never been caught.
You think you've discovered one of them-- the death of a James Sabow (Col, USMC, Frm) in '91.
Ruled a suicide.
Got that in mind?
Welcome to the world-view of the guy who tried to get into the Pentagon.
I kind of wonder if this finding about a side-effect of pot might be related.

Muwhahaha! Excellent!
1,200 "retail clinics"! (That's a walk-in clinic that doesn't do urgent care-- the routine sort of stuff). Following the trail that started here, I find that there's also over 3k "urgent care" centers in their database. (That's stuff you don't want to go to an emergency room for, but do need work on, and generally also do stuff if you don't have a family doctor-- my first interaction was when I got a throat infection.)
I think they're way low, since I know of two urgent care centers in my zip code-- and they list neither, but do list one I didn't know about. ^.^
A bit less on the consumer side, but handy for small medical practices, is the medical testing clinics-- you can be sent in by your doctor, or you can hire them yourself to do one of dozens of tests. (Here's one of the places THOSE clinics send stuff to get tested.{I know of that one because the sign caught my eye})
Isn't this nifty?

Just Watch.
Go grab a good drink, get the screen set up so you can maximize the video, turn off outside sounds and distractions-- and just watch.

No small number of those men could walk on to the streets here in Spokane and go uncommented on-- the hats would be a bit odd, but even the manner of the guy at about 5:42 would pass. (the guy without a hat)
Most of the women I got a good look at were wearing bum rolls and hats that I wouldn't even be able to try on without feeling like an idiot. The lady that gives us the best look, towards the end, is wearing shoes I couldn't walk in, a huge hat with a lovely fluffy feather on it, a bum roll and a dress that has more in common with classic velvet drapes than anything I've ever worn-- and she's catching a trolley in them.
(I don't wish for a return to any time like this-- I just wish that I could do that. Kind of like when you watch someone do a sketch from scratch, or make a wonderful meal from what's on hand without any sort of recipe. I wish that I could do that.)
My uncle has one of those cars.
I grew up with those cart-wheels around the garden at home.
Red and gold versions of those trolleys run all over the place in Wenatchee, abet on rubber wheels instead of steel tracks.
None of my grandparents were alive yet-- I'm not even sure the parents of the great-great-aunt Kit shares a name with were in the country yet.
A fantasy book I've enjoyed
starts about the same time this would've been filmed.
I have no idea where on Market Street this is, assuming that we even know-- that may have been lost in the fire, too-- but this is a section of market street these days:

Maureen found the tower, so I was able to click to kinda what you see in the video.
