IMHO, modern medicine is "incomplete" medicine.
It is only one theory of medicine. I have no problem with that
except that they have now created a monopoly and will not allow any
competition to threaten their strangle hold on American medicine.
Actually, you have a big problem with it, as you have told us over and
over, since you think the theory is false.
Quoted message said:With fair and balanced competition the American people would figure
out which theory was valid and which was bogus.
They already have. Yours is bogus.
Quoted message said:Thomas Edison said it very well:
The doctor of the future will nive no medicine, but will interest his
patient in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and
prevention of disease.
Thomas Edison 1847-1931.
Why would anyone care what Thomas Edison said about medicine? He
wasn't any sort of doctor or healer. He also thought you could
insulate against gravity with some sort of alloy.
Quoted message said:Our modern docs do have the understanding of the cause of disease and the
prevention of disease that existed in 1850 in the US.
Public health conditions are vastly better in the US than they were in
1850. That's why life expectancy is so much higher.
