I absolutely agree Weirdad!! The doctors who are in it for the money are the ones on the other side of this fight. Ever hear of expert witness testimony, Mr. Camerieri? The doctors you propose regulating make an average of $95 an hour on a regular office visit ($200 to $300 if they are a neurosurgeon). The doctors that are putting them out of business by giving expert witness testimony for trial lawyers make an average of $700 an hour.

One more quick note. In case you think I'm exaggerating, check out Clausen v. M/V New Clarissa where doctors were paid a whopping $149,170.05 for testifying that an oil spill killed some oysters. Somehow I don't think my overworked pediatrician is the one who is in it for the money, Mr. C
