Azraelle:

You make an excellent point on personal responsibility. If this issue is not discussed on a wider level, some medical practioners may as well just pack up their bags and get into another type of business due to skyrocketing malpractice insurance. Also, think about our civil courts, in any case (for example fat kids vs McDonald's, I know the judge threw it out, but what if the kids won) would be flooded, and overwhelmed with ligitation, and possibly fraudelent lawsuits.

Its time for people not to believe everything on the news for granted (even thinking its reliable...) and for people to develop some analytical skills and reasoning ability...

JMHO,
