where respect for science reigns supreme, armies of white coats going about their selfless tasks, using applied science to serve mankind, a perfect world within a world where you'd never hear anyone say something like:"Why are drug companies allowed to 'lobby' doctors & hospitals with thousands of dollars of 'free samples', concert tickets, box seats at sports events etc. in order to have more prescriptions written for their drugs? Shouldn't a doctor's prescription be based on the health needs & pocketbook of the patient?"
