As an ex registered nurse who spent most of his time in a public hospital
environment, I find it an interesting proposition that the quality and
extent of medical care, from go to whoa, would depend solely on the
financial status and social position of the recipient and not just on
medical need.  I would imagine it would be very popular, particularly with
the rich and famous.

Sorry, but coming from someone in a country with a long history of
socialized medicine, I just had to have that dig.  I actually think
medicine as we now know it is ultimately doomed to collapse, simply from
the massive growth of chronic illness that conventional medicine is so
ill-equipped to manage.  For this reason I think it imperitive that we
educate ourselves, and those around us, as much and as soon as possible
about the true causes of disease and how to prevent them.  That is why
lists that disseminate information freely, such as this one, are so
important.  Keep that knowledge flowing.

Namaste

* Irish doctors regret going into medicine
 
Almost a third of all doctors in Ireland said they would reject
medicine as a career if they were back at school, according to a
survey by the Irish Medical Organisation.Among femal doctors the
numbers were as high as 36%, compared to 29% among male respondents.
Some 42% of the country's junior doctors said they regreted going into
medicine, compared to a quarter of GPs and consultants. Increasing
workload and fear of litigation were cited as two major concerns in
the profession.
