I heard that for MD's they only have to take 200-300 hours of classes to be able to practice Acupuncture. This is a scandal and also not fair because we have to go to school for 3-4 years and learn a ton of herbolgy among other things, while they only need to take 200 hours?

That's wack. The system of medicine is different, they need a lot more than that.

I was talking to my teacher today and he said,

"Yeah that's true. Because MD's rule the world. If they could get rid of all of us, they would in a second. They realize that we're starting to take some of their patients away so some of them go learn acupuncture for 200 hours and they say, "oh you want acupuncture?> HEy I know acupunture too!"

And in the mean time, they keep pushing those perscriptions. It takes 4 years to get good at something like this, not 200 hours"


That's a straight insult that they can get licensed in 200 hours.
