And it still bugs me that Chris is skeptical
of self-interested alternative medicine types
who advance health claims but completely
unskeptical about self-interested doctors who
are allowed to regulate themselves, limit
competition, enforce supply constraints, etc.
This type of reasoning is similar to that of
lefties who trust politicians but not businesses
(and of righties who do the reverse).
Science and slavish worship of the establishment
are not the same thing - establishment economics
in the 1950s (or even the 1970s) looks pretty
bad now. Establishment medicine from that time
looks even worse.

Morality by consensus is frequently morality by convenience.
