Summary
If you've ever wondered why doctor care is so atrocious in the U.S.
medical system, with doctor-prescribed drugs now the third leading cause
of death in the country, part of the answer might be that some doctors
shouldn't be practicing in the first place. The U.S. medical system
allows doctors who graduated from banned offshore medical schools (in
the Dominican Republic, for example) to "play doctor" right here in the
USA.
