this is a letter I sent
to the editor of Eugene Weekly, a local paper,

Medical hit and run? Medical physicians have sworn an oath of ethics. Involvement is on the pretext of improved health, NOT passing by in indifference. The "patient" is enticed into their lair, and increased vulnerability at the physicians disposal.
We are brainwashed from before birth to trust them unquestioningly. Many may benefit, but for those who are betrayed it is analogous to the "law enforcement" dilemma. Law enforcement officers, having sworn an oath of ethics to "protect and serve" citizens, systematically violate citizens at the most intimate levels: involuntary spontaneous interrogation/search & seisure under threat of lethal force, bludgeoning with batons, chemical warfare (doses exceeding manufactures' safety limits) , incarceration/ institutionalization, death.
Although medical physicians and law enforcement officers may have the best of intentions, the experience for many patient citizens is the anti-thesis of the respective professions.
Cancer treatment is a huge denomination in their religion of illth. As Sacred Wallet tortured my mother to death with radiation and chemotherapy, I got some snacks and beverages in the "family of the cancer patient" lounge. Every package listing ingredients contained carcinogenic artificial substances. Only one (for teenagers) of the many booklets on cancer I read there mentioned carcinogens in food. it said some food had carcinogens in it. no details or suggestions. My mom had shingles, NOT CANCER. Painful, NOT FATAL.
Cancer doctors want to see cancer patients (=power=$=power). Law enforcement officers want to see criminals (=power=$=power).
Remember: The "doc" is "practicing" and a cavity search isn't a dental check-up.
