Except... they do? There are unethical doctors who are only in it to make a buck. There has to be some kind of oversight for any organization that deals with the public. We need to regulate doctors for the same reason we need to tell companies not to put lead in baby formula.

The doctor who wrote this piece was suggesting that it's absurd and dangerous to say that government shouldn't regulate doctors and medicine. Of course government should.
