The entire medical profession is built on a mountain of government regulation designed to provide doctors with the greatest return for minimal work. Just a bunch of box ticking sheep that are trained to toe the line rather than to provide medical care.

The amount of times I've had to see a doctor about a condition I already diagnosed myself just to get a prescription is staggering. They say its under the guise of public safety, but really a bunch of doctors got together and used state power to ensure you have to pay them $100 to get permission to buy a $5 drug.

And don't get me started on specialized medicine. I've experienced horrible appointments that I have complained about and refused to pay for. Their response? "We'll just bulk bill it". Which in Australia means they will just charge Medicare and not charge you any excess. So they still get paid with borderline Medicare fraud.
