That is an incredibly wasteful post for the following reasons
a)You are restarting up an argument that had reached an endpoint, despite its unsettled discussion
B) the cheap shot you took at me is laden with ignorant presuppositions...namely that you can possibly deduce who I am as a person by how I sound in a post on a web board, and that somehow this can be extrapolated to my performance in any area whatsoever....these are traits that you have personified me with because you disagree with my view point, not based on any tangible evidence whatsoever
c) it assumes that my opinion on FMG's of the nature discussed is not shared by many other people in the medical community...as well as much of the public
d) I, as well as anyone else who has a clue about the nature of the basic economics taught in high schools, am strongly against anything that increases the supply of doctors, especially when these physicians are not as well trained (and it is really impossible to claim that the training is equal)....it worries me that many in my profession are seemingly in favor of making the same type of mistake that killed the american farmer at a time when doctors are under more fire than ever
My personal belief on DO's is that the degree is more or less obsolete.....the reason for having a DO degree in the past was because they were actually different types of medicine and had differences in licensing.....however the DO's gained acceptance by becoming more or less analogous to allopathic medical schools....thus I really fail to see why (besides the fact that it maintains people's jobs) the degree persists as opposed to the schools becoming MD schools that teach manipulation in addition to the curriculum.....
People attempt to defend the fact that the schools indeed are different, however besides the addition of OMM i fail to see the diffence between an osteopath school and an allopath schools with an emphasis on primary care
