29. I agree that there are all forms of fraud and I hate to see
anyone taken advantage of...

I disagree that homeopathy is faith & superstition but I also agree that it is not for everyone. Just as our incredible array of pharma/meds may not always be beneficial to everyone.

Perhaps if our medical system was affordable people would be so desperate and make poor (health) choices.

Perhaps if our healthcare offered choices that are "alternative" that more people would be helped...would feel more comfortable with the choices available.

Perhaps if the corporations were not more important than individuals and they genuinely wanted people to be healthy, they wouldn't sell crap and call it food.

I am not so sure it it the faith practioners that cause so many of our health problems in the first place. Do you go to a practioner because you are healthy?? or because you already have a problem....did the medical profession fail somehow...through lack of accessability or affordability?

I'm not sure the blame is being put in the right place here. Easy to blame alternative med when maybe its not what is causing the problems...maybe they are trying to fix the problems.....:shrug;
