Doctors, for example, are subject to huge pressure not to step out of line and go against "established medical practices" and implement new therapies, even when they know that the old therapy is dangerous or the new therapy is very good. <br /><br />Those who create new drugs are collared by their bosses, who decide which drugs may be made depending on how much money will be earned, rather than how much human health will be improved.<br /><br />Any time you have a pyramidal structure, with one set of decision makers at the top, and the guys doing the work at the bottom, the same thing happens - innovation is stifled, and the agenda of the few is pursued at the expense of real innovation.Just Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10383178687124840985noreply@blogger.com
