Agree! Also agree with the proposition that they are afraid to admit that such deceit and evil exist in society, that it is totally outside of their ability to conceive that people could operate with such maleficent intent because they rationalize that they themselves would could not possibly do such a thing, so they believe now one else would be capable of those things either.
By the way. C.S. Lewis has the best comeback to those that like to slam Christianity by claiming that a long time ago Christians burned witches at the stake.
"For example, one man said to me, "Three hundred years ago people in England were putting witches to death. Was that what you call the Rule of Human Nature or Right Conduct?" But surely the reason we do not execute witches is that we do not believe there are such things.
If we did—if we really thought that there were people going about who had sold themselves to the devil and received supernatural powers from him in return and were using these powers to kill their neighbors or drive them mad or bring bad weather, surely we would all agree that if anyone deserved the death penalty, then these filthy quislings did. There is no difference of moral principle here: the difference is simply about matter of fact.
It may be a great advance in knowledge not to believe in witches: there is no moral advance in not executing them when you do not think they are there. You would not call a man humane for ceasing to set mousetraps if he did so because he believed there were no mice in the house."
Watching the Sarasota stuff you linked. Outrageous indeed. If ever there was a time in our lives to stay the hell away from Hospitals, it is surely now. If you are not highly knowlegable on medicine, you might as well be playing Russian Roulette.
Bunch of highly credentialed cretins, messing around with things they don't understand. I don't know what the hell we're training these days but it sure as hell isn't physicians. Follow only officially approved protocols provided through official, approved channels. Do not deviate! Do not question! No thinking allowed!
Incredible isn't it, and very different from the doctor/patient care experiences you or I might have known in our past where healthcare professionals seem to really have healing first in minds, and operated with compassion.
Clearly not the case any longer. I left the hospital setting about 30 years ago. I worked as a Medical Technologist in the Lab for about 15 years or so. I knew a lot of dumbasses calling themselves Doctors back then. I think it is so much worse now.
30 years ago hospitals were all losing money leading to consolidation and concentration of ownership. They have obviously adopted a new business model involving collusion between insurance, pharma, and HMOs. Hold patients captive and treat them to death with expensive meds and tests. Patient dies and all they have to say is "Next".
The ER Doc as patient advocate story was compelling and all too familiar.
I got a call this morning from supervisor of Sarasota Memorial Public Health, the guy I had left message with last name of Zuber. He told me that he was acknowledging my call, and stated that the Dr. Witness vid issue was being investigated.
I thanked him for returning call, then asked if there was an incident, or case number, or any way I could be made aware of result of investigation. I very kindly stated that since it was his departments action that the vid implicated in what I viewed as a possible crime, that I was not sure I trusted them to investigate themselves. He then told me that the matter is being investigated by internal, and external authorities. I said, external authority. you mean like the City Police Dept? He said, no not investigated as a crime, but more of a policy violation.
I pretty much could tell I was going to get no more blood out of this turnip, so I again thanked him for his time, and that was it.
I am old and wise enough to know that when you saw at something, it often make it easier to change the angle of cut, come at it from a different angle, in a teeter-totter like fashion. So that is my intent, to hit it a bit from the Zuber side, then take a few passes at the State Rep side, then over to the city, maybe commissioner side, and possibly a swipe of two on the news station angle.

I salute your tenacity.
From my personal experience, few organizations are better at sweeping things under the carpet and covering them up than Hospitals.
Two faced glad handers and straight faced liars abound.
