Hey, if were gonna start agreeing, people are gonna talk. Not about miracles neither.

I really don't want to know, but I have to ask. Is that the root of our fubar'ed Med system?

Hey, if you want, I'll deny we ever agreed on anything, just give the word...

Allowing third parties (insurance, Medicare, Government, etc.) to insert themselves between the doctor and patient is the underlying cause, IMHO.
