REALIZING, OF COURSE, THIS IS OFF-TOPIC....
Yeah. See also: medical mafia.
For 50 years the medical community has failed to cure *anything*.
Physical therapy has gone a long way, and we can find _treatment_ for
almost everything. But do we really need to pay-or-die?
Just a favorite gripe, as the prices go up, cures remain elusive,
and Mead Johnson (down the street) rips out tulips and plants new ones
every six weeks.
We should really move this, or end it.
