Does panda know how the witches and broomsticks myth began? Hehe it's bizarre.

I don't blame individuals for the way the system is, I know 99% of them go to work and want to do some good. The problem is that few of them seem to see outside their education "box". They perform like robots almost, because there is no room for them to think or second guess any command that is handed down. In that manner the medical industry is a lot like the military. Many people can't hack it (pun intended) and change careers after lots of disappointment, years of school and essentially wasted knowledge.

The real problem arose, I think, when people started being viewed as a commodity, and not a human. You are a product to be repaired. Again, this is not pointing fingers at the individuals, but the system itself. That seems to be around the same time the doctors started receiving hefty kickbacks for basically being a white-coat drug dealer.

I happen to have a passionate hatred for the Pharma industry, that might show.
The doctors now are more likely to hand you a script, without so much as checking your pulse.

"Is the patient breathing?"

"No"

"Well shove these down his throat and have him call me in the morning"
