It is ironic that we defeated the medical opposition to the practice of chiropractic in 1976 by the Wilk Case which kept the AMA from infringing upon our right to practice. But we cannot seem to stop the medical intrusion by the CCE into our right to practice true chiropractic (for now only on the college level but keep tuned).
When you have something that is pure, right, good and affordable there will always be resistance from someone somewhere. That’s just how it is in the world. So it matters not from where it comes. The resisitance will be there and there will be a struggle. Anything worth having comes with a price.
You’re right Joe, the cartel has been diligently working its plan to fully implement their ideology.
By the way, reference to the year 1976 in this context is somewhat misleading since it wasn’t until August 27, 1987, that Judge Susan Getzendanner, United States District Judge for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division, found the AMA and co-conspirators guilty of an unlawful conspiracy in violation of the Sherman Act. It wasn’t until November 1990 that the US Supreme Court finally denied AMA’s appeals.
Thanks for the correction Myron. They say that memory is one of the first things to go..
Has the AMA ever stated that their goal is not to “contain, eliminate and destroy” chiropractic? They failed trying to eliminate us outright, so why not destroy us covertly by medicalizing our education to the point that we become medical practitioners?
Good point Bryson. Kind of the old Pogo comment:”We have met the enemy and he is us” There is no need to“contain, eliminate and destroy” chiropractic if we are absorbed. Example: Osteopathy.
Seems to be working however slowly but creeping along……still a bunch of rebels & die-hards!
