Do you think it would be better to live in a world with no doctors? You can already live in that world if you want. Thanks to doctors, millions of people around the world no longer die from treatable illnesses. Everyone in my family has either had their life saved, or saved from ruin, by a doctor at one point or another.

Isn't there a risk doctors stop giving out a diagnosis for most cases? So you'll pay for their time then have to see 10 different ones before getting any idea what's wrong? Because they're avoiding the risk of a wrong diagnosis in all but the most obvious cases.

lol terrible idea. just as great as having so that the service you bought is entirely refunded if the code has a single bug.
