You obviously haven't dealt with insurance companies lately...they are
NOT
interested in placating anyone, except their investors. They
routinely
deny treatments left and right, in the name of 'economy'...

No, I only quoted your own terminology -- 'placebo' -- back to you.
If alternative treatments are nothing but 'placebos', you still
haven't
explained why more people find such 'placebos' effective, than they do
traditional medicine.
Why don't traditional protocols have a comparable 'placebo' effect on
people?

Far less than the horrible maimings and even deaths at the hands of
allopathic
doctors...
