All pip install attempts are met with SSL error

Thanks so much for your answer! Perfect! I did not have any folder or file for pip,ini. I created one with the trusted-host line and that helped. That hard codes the workaround. I can now install from the command line and in pyCharm.

is this a personal computer at home or a business computer that might have a web content filter?

A personal computer with a simple network configuration. I also disabled my firewall as a test.

My next question is what is the root cause? This seems like a work around. It bypasses python's attempt to prevent a man in the middle attack. It's like I need a cert installed on my system. How?
