Modern medicine has done so much damage - they can do good as well, but until they get to the point of realizing that meds aren't everything and work with the whole being instead of with a symptom, we are in a big mess.
And they used to sterilize women (of color and native American) without their knowledge. This has been going on for a long time!
Exactly. I am sure the activity has not stopped. And this one was written into so-called healthcare law to make it legal. We need to stop thinking our departments of health are working for us.
Or any departments for that matter.
That said, I am sure that many of the "laws" are done with good intention - someone thinking they know better what is good for us. And I am not totally against laws since people seldom do the right thing if they can get away with more profitable or more self-serving things. But I don't like anyone to be so deep in my business...
