 BC> Talk about specious argument...
 RK> On your part? Certaijnly not on mine!
Hah!
 RK> No! My complaint is that "profit" many times is the driver instead of
 RK> the needs of the patient.
Then we could argue the "value" of life, I suppose.
 BC> Who decides the needs of the patient?
 RK> I always thought, naively perhaps, the MD's took an oath to make that
 RK> decision.
I haven't read the "oath" lately so can't say for sure.  Many do believe
it is their inviolable right/duty to make such decisions.
 RK> Are you suggesting that bean counters make the decisions affection the
 RK> health of patients? What are MD's for and what do they do?
MDs are exemplary functionaries.
 RK> Are you an MD?
No.
 RK> Sounds like you've been sniffing too much gas.
You're the one with beliefs in the ozone.
