How Socialized Medicine Enslaves Your Doctor' s Mind

This interesting 3:00 minute video clip describes how government
regulation of medicine enslaves the mind and medical decision-making
of every doctor trying to practice under it.

It describes in layman's terms the exponential growth and the
effects of conflicting, irrational regulations issued by the myriad
of government health care regulatory agencies compounded by
similarly proliferating, arbitrary, and often irrational 3rd party
payor decrees under socialized medicine.

It shows how the attempt to obey thousands of arbitrary orders -
often irrational and unscienifically based- blows the mind of
hapless doctors trying to practice under them, tying them "hands,
feet....and mind..." as they struggle hopelessly to maintain their
professional integrity and duty to the individual patient by providng
life-saving medical care based on the objective scientific and
medical needs of the patient while wearing the crushing chains
fashioned by thousands of taskmasters lacking in complex,
sophisticated medical knowledge and medical training
