You have only to read a newspaper or watch TV to see that the Health Insurance problem in the U.S. is a crisis. Many of the presidential candidates talk about providing health care for all, but can they really do it? Technology drives advances in medicine and advances in medicine drive health care. Many are fearful of this because they think that is drives up cost. But this is not the case in almost every industry because increases in demand and advances in technology usually drive down costs. The computer I use today is more powerful and cheaper than the one I used 10 years ago. Clearly, we need advances in technology to drive the cost of health care down. Perhaps that is part of the reason thousands of workers and students buy a doctors excuse online everyday. With millions uninsured and the cost of health care rising access to doctors for a visit is growing more difficult. As more and more products and services move online it may not be long before many things done in a traditional doctors office are done on line. At least for now, this seems to include fake doctors notes. Could fake doctors notes be more of a symptom of the problems with health care than a problem themselves? Are consumers telling us with their thousands of purchases a day that we need to do a better job on? Consumers may be telling us that if we aan not get real doctors excuses online, then we will get fake ones.

Now, some might be surprised of the ethics surrounding this. But, actually this should not be surprising when you think that most of us have told a "little white lie" at one time in our lives. Many would say that small lies are so common from politicians to used car salesmen that we often take them for granted. Clearly, we all have our own set of ethics we follow and the buying of doctor's excuses is an individual choice that is not for me to judge.

Some have asked about the legality of fake doctors excuses. As far as I know they are perfectly legal in most cases to by and sell. Many see them as more of an ethical issue than a legal one. If you think you can "put one over" on your boss or professor with a fake doctor's excuse you buy more power to you.

Is my tibial bone broken?
By: Jeff65109 | 30-08-2008
While playing softball this past Monday, I took a line-drive off my tibial bone (left leg). Anyway, I was looking for ways to know if it's broken without going to the hospital. I can walk on it, yes, but I cannot apply any type of pressure to the affected area. I was running my fingers down my leg and found something odd. It starts off with bone, then there's a soft region that I can actually push in quite deep in lieu of the pain, of course, and then there's bone again. It is possible to walk with a broken bone, I know, so what should I do?
