Then again Michgan has had MM for not even 10 years. Too bad we won't be around if and when MM has been around for 100 years or say 83 years like since prohibition has ended.

Could u buy a cold beer and drink it at a major baseball game say way back in the late 1930's, somehow i doubt it. I got a feeling it took some time before drinking in public at events were lots of kids were around was deemed OK. Maybe it happen during the 1950's, if not surely by the free 1960's.

I wounder how it be once the 2060's come around, like i said, too bad we won;t be around to see it.

Good thread. Clearly there are many people who think it is their right to tell others how to live and how to medicate themselves, and most of them have zero expertise in the field.

I feel like the last vestiges of real freedom in this country are ebbing away when judges, lawyers and politicians take unto themselves the power to make medical decisions.

@Dr. Bob why not suggest to the court, the next time you find yourself in one, that you have as much right and experience to make legal decisions as they do making medical ones? Either way, people's lives are affected, so why not?

I bet that would make them think twice!

Even in the supreme court, the judges disagree with each other. Rarely is any thing decided 9 to 0

So don't take everything they say, like its set in stone.

Internet doctor visits are the wave of the future.

Once upon a time, doctors mostly made house calls but then came the telephone and cars and people could call the doctor and drive over to see them. Now we got sound with video and it works so good, many courts use it to save on the costs of transporting the person to court.. If its good enough for them why not others ?

Simply because that is the way the wrote the law on skype and certifications. Fair? No. Reasonable? No. It just is the way it is. Bottom line is that if you go to a skype clinic you are clearly putting yourself at risk.

You know I was testifying at a DWI case as an expert once. The point I was making for the defense is that BLOOD alcohol was the standard, and it could be physically measured rather than estimated from a breath alcohol calculation. The prosecutor said the nearest hospital that could draw blood was 20 min away and would take too much officer time. I replied 'I wasn't aware justice was a matter of your convenience.' and damn near spent an afternoon in jail for saying it.

But trust me, I get my point across in court.

You had every right to say that, fuck their threats.

As long as any doctor is seeing patients face to face, reviewing records, creating a chart and offering follow up (in other words doing it just like any medical visit), I don't have a problem with them taking up the slack left by primary care doctors that refuse to certify their own patients.

Dr. Bob
