[QUOTE="svenski7, post: 443518, member: 5439"] I'll respectfully disagree with Friedman on medical qualifications and regulation. The idea that "a free market" can prevent fly-by-night doctors from moving from city to city or state to state to continue their shoddy work is laughable. How is word-of-mouth going to stop a doctor from moving from NYC to LA to perform more half-assed surgeries? You could spend 30 years setting up shop in different parts of NYC and no one would be the wiser. This doesn't even include the terminal therapies and surgeries where the patient may not even be around to testify that the doctor is a fraud. I guess I feel strongly about this because I've seen so many "highly regarded" doctors in the last five years that weren't worth a damn that it's depressing. Feel free to disagree with me or argue Friedman's side but I look forward to the day when the medical establishment in the USA collapses. [b]Things will not change until people start dying[/b]. That means people dying from lack of care in the streets as well as doctors, lawyers, banksters dying via vigilantes in the streets. How do the people on this forum think Obamacare was pushed through? It started with a national TV campaign highlighting cases in which people with preexisting conditions were denied medical coverage and either died or lived some sort of half-life as a consequence. Most of the cases were minorities and the outrage at this inequality spread to SWPLs who, although they themselves were covered, were willing to see a cataclysmic change occur. A gamble, if you will. All revolutions are gambles. This became Obamacare. The paradox of Obamacare is that it will make the doctors, lawyers and bankster richer but will deliver a watered-down quality of healthcare to most people. The greed of these three cartels: doctors, lawyers and banksters is their own impending doom. [/QUOTE]
