An Oregon disgrace
Here in the Beaver State, if someone wants to do your taxes for a fee, they have to take a test and get a license. If they want to deliver your baby for a fee, they don't.

And, anybody can repair the brakes on your car for a fee but needs a license to fix your lawn sprinklers.

Anyone ever investigate the MDs after a child they delivers dies?

Don't forget, in Oregon, that person who gives you a pedicure is a "nail technician" who must be licensed by the state. (Oregon is only a handful of states that requires licensing of "nail technicians.")
And in Nevada and Florida, your interior decorator must be licensed.

Well, that makes sense. At least to color-blink folks like me. I kept telling my ex-wife that those shades of green all looked the same to me. A licensed ID could have backed me up.

On second thought I think a couple of questions that need to be asked are how many infants die each year as a result of medical care, or lack of medical care and how often does an investigation take place?
