 One of the things I learned in the US Health Care system: you better ask a ton of questions because for every health situation there is always going to be a very, very easy and wrong solution. 
 Nailed it! 
 "Wrong" is a relative term.  Profitable for Big Pharma is the goal. 
 Not necessarily. Pharma interferes for sure, but nurses and doctors either with little time or literally burning out is also a huge source of: "oh do you just want the pill? Sure, here is the pill." 
 "For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong."
