so long as we keep mistaking foxes for henhouse guardians under the false presumption that self-regulation is not both more effective and less corrupt than state safety certification and licensure, we'll be trapped here.
the first step is getting people to actively realize that they have been handed boat anchors, not waterwings.

the first step is getting people to actively realize that they have been handed boat anchors, not waterwings.
the rest is easy:
get the state out of the way and ban mandatory licensing and accreditation. remove safety agencies, health boards, all of it or at the very least and possibly as an interstitial step, maybe them voluntary, like iso-9000 and see who wants to play.
the market will still demand information and methods by which to assess offerings. this will rapidly evolve an ecosystem of data and analysis that serves consumer need, not gatekeeper privilege.
letting guilds and monopolies control credentialing is just fertilizer for legal plunder.
Yes, we are living through the consequences of an unholy alliance between the government and Big Pharma.
Yes, the CDC, FDA, NIH, NIAID, etc., are captured and not to be trusted.
But there are also supranational umbrella organizations (Gates, Wellcome Trust, Rockefeller, WHO, UN, GAVI, etc.) who are the power behind the power, the super-colluders.
Human nature being what it is, I don't think we can leave healthcare (and many other industries) to the free market. Companies cut corners and lie and cheat...and people get hurt or die. This time those companies have done so with the imprimatur, co-operation, and cover of "the experts" and "the health agencies".
I am reminded of the infant formula case in China in 2008.
Of course, the Chinese bad guys went to prison or to the executioner (unlike the Union Carbide execs who killed people in Bhopal, for example).
