There is a chiropractor in NH promising to cure diabetes without medication. And a bunch of other charlatans and shitheels waiting in the wings... What happened to an FDA who actually enforced laws? We've had any number of patent medicine scandals (Enzyte?), and the "science" of Homeopathy is going mainstream. Going after a few of these leeches, and the pill mills, would be a good thing.
