It's easy to say 'follow the money' and I suppose some are willing to pay big bucks to make their dreams come true; but who are the medical students or practitioners who are drawn to this kind of thing; who are the licensing boards and peer reviewers and anyone else at that level that can shrug and think, "well, go for it, if that's what you want to be your rice bowl." I'm not saying it should be outlawed by legislation. I'm thinking there should be enough doctors with some rational common sense to say, this is not Medicine, it's quackery.

And I'm not talking about the psychiatrists. That's a whole 'nother ballgame.

"The psychiatrists" might actually be a breath of fresh air to this insanity. They would not only have the opportunity to examine the dream chasers but the white coat quacks who believe they are doing their patients a service.
