BUTCHERS MAKE BILLIONS

Dr. Polyphemous Pangloss doesn't think twice when he has an ill patient who requires specialized care. He orders him or her to Houston. He explains:

"Flocks of vultures have blackened the skies above Brownsville. They have arrived from the four corners of the globe. Their rapacious eyes are on the lookout for new victims. Their voracious appetites are insatiable. They descend upon their helpless prey with razor-sharp talons and meat-shredding beaks, quarrelling among themselves as they rip their victims limb from limb. Who are these monstrous creatures? They are the doctors of Brownsville.

"Their incompetence is only exceeded by their greed. In their pursuit of money, they come to blows over the patients. Many of these foreign doctors have abandoned their own afflicted people. The sacred dollar is their god. They are scavengers in search of fresh meat. During lulls at the hospitals they don't think twice about playing a friendly game of soccer. No ball? There's a fetus or two lying around.

"In Brownsville's Third-World environment where corruption rules and incompetence reigns, these doctors have found a second home. They push themselves beyond their physical limits in their recklessness to treat as many patients as possible. They must finance opulent lifestyles. Overworked, they make mistakes that result in injury or death. Most residents can relate horror tales experienced at the bloody hands of Brownsville doctors.

"Allegedly, Brownsville doctors, upon the completion of their studies, take the Hippocratic oath. They swear to uphold ethical standards. Instead, Brownsville's charlatans, upon weaseling their way through medical school, take the Hippocratic oath. They swear to triple charge patients, gouge insurance companies and badger each other for referral fees.

"The medical community once occupied an honored position in Brownsville. The doctors were respected professionals. Elderly residents fondly remember the Sisters of Mercy and the unselfish service they rendered the city.

"A new reality prevails. Locals are at the mercy of black-ops operators who ravaged their victims with the ferocity of hyenas. These killers are laughing all the way to the bank. Brownsville doctors and life aren't compatible."

"Brownsville doctors have learned from the likes of the politicians who rule the Third World Capital of the United States. They will leave a scar the size of a rope on a person's belly, but they won't so much as leave a scratch on that same individual's billfold while extracting every last dollar from the helpless quarry.

"Their lust for money rivals a child molester's uncontrollable urges. The macabre murders of several physicians are grim testimonies to the maniacal nature of Brownsville sawbones."
