When they need to get to a golf game, uh oh, c-section. If the labor is proceeding too naturally and not fast enough, c-section. When the labor stops because the doctor straps the woman into an uncomfortable position and ignores her crying which stops the labor process, c-section. The procedure is over used, and not applied for the things it ought to be applied for, as the doctor often gets there too late. There is a huge amount of egoism in medicine today, which coupled with the over reliance on drugs to solve all problems, is causing more health problems and rising costs (especially given that even the wealthy now have a hard time paying for the simplest medical procedures without insurance). The medical system is basically broken beyond repair by anything short of a major overall, and socialized medicine is not the solution. In my opinion of course, medicine has been broken down on purpose so that the people will walk into the arms of socialized medicine, which will give centralized government more control and more power to break up the family. Even more power than hospitals that take your house if you can't pay for treatments you never asked for.Athanasiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11857043218277004727noreply@blogger.com
