Imposing speed limits doesn't address the needs of people who are determined to drive at insanely high speeds. You need to reach out to those people and understand their traditional approaches to high-speed driving, even if this doesn't align with your ideas of modern road safety.

Pretty poor strawman.

Health care is a basic need, essential to all.

High speed driving is not.

Homeopathy is not healthcare.

I never made the claim that it was.

Nor do any of my claims require that claim. Only people's belief and it is rather paternalistic to think you know better.

Those poor silly little children being conned like that - when the medical system has actual problems with lack of education (of the patients) and God-complexs (mostly this seems to be among surgeons) actually driving people away.

The benefit of recognising the issues in the health system is that if they can be addressed we might see less people being conned. But that is not the focus of this conversation, it is what to do to make the people already being conned safer and more likely to seek the help they need (which may not be possible in many countries where cost is prohibitive).

For someone so against the concept of knowing better, you have a remarkable degree of confidence in the superiority of your position

I know that I don't know.

Well as the rest of us do know and you're not sure, let's agree to go along with the overwhelming consensus
