But you voted for someone. You may argue that you did not even vote. We need to change laws that are unfair to the practice of straight chiropractic. But we must also realize that by living in this society, we are acknowledging that our government, right or wrong, is our government and if we cannot change it then we are obligated to abide by its laws. That is a principle just as vital to the perpetuation of the human race as any chiropractic principle.
Civil disobedience creates disorder.
It causes disharmony among the cells of a society. It leads to the breakdown of a system and as such is in conflict with our chiropractic philosophy. The colleges are not going to save our profession. Most of the schools have been forced to compromise chiropractic in order for survival. Those that have not compromised have all but given up the idea of turning this profession around.
