Expert? Where do I profess to be an expert? What I can do is read the experts work and make critical decisions (for me) based on that research, not mine, expert research.
Snookered yourself eh??
Bit of cherry picking? Or would you like to quote in context? The Snookered yourself comment was in regard to the reply, making presumptions about denial of care.
But anyway, I think you may be confused about the use of the term 'research' and some sort of right to be able to perform it. My research is reading the scientific research conducted by experts then making decisions based on the quality of the evidence. You know, who funded the research, who conducted the research etc.
So before you go off half cocked about bickering or some such garbage you could probably read the whole post and address it rather than pick out the juicy little tidbits that satisfy your agenda, you may then understand that my comments are my personal opinion of what's going on in society. Not some pseudo attempt at claiming expert status.
