Modern medicine is a 'practice' in which the 'medical practioners' are rewarded for giving mind and body altering chemicals in copious amounts to their test subjects... I mean guinea pigs.. I mean patients. Most often, the drugs and side effects are worse than the disease. In all cases, when the drugs are developed they are not taking their effect on the body as a whole into consideration, nor do they possess the understanding to do so with any degree of confidence. When charge for medical treatment and prescription drugs, you are putting a price on peoples health. Unfortunately, that also means that there is more money to be made if people are not healthy.

There is right and wrong in your comments. When I was in practice I saw benefit from my prescriptions in the vast majority of circumstances. I wanted my guys healthy. Many of them became my friends. Now there are the unscrupulous docs, a' la Dr. Murray, but that is another aspect of the problem.
