What's Wrong with Veterinary Medicine

I don't know of any other industry or profession where an individual can be "executed" before the trial--before the facts are elucidated and someone has a chance for a defence.
What has happened to this profession?
Another DVM I work with illustrated it quite nicely today in Bolton. She came in with her daughter. She has 2 kids; a boy and a girl both under the age of 16, I think. The girl is older. The boy expressed interest in becoming a veterinarian. His mother, a classmate of mine, actively discouraged him from even thinking of it but she encourages her daughter. Why is it okay for her daughter but not her son, I asked? She said: because the profession doesn't pay enough...it's okay for her daughter but not for him.
It's been reduced to a service industry; nursing with a title. And even the denizens of the profession think that way.
When did I write this? Probably sometime in the summer when things were tense and clients were being cantankerous.
