Doctors are doctors because they passed their doctorate.

Someone more knowledgeable than you set the minimum bar of skill they require to practice their craft.

You don't get to make trust based decisions on doctors because you don't know what a good doctor looks like. You lack the knowledge to do so. Unless you are yourself a doctor.

I have even less trust in corporations than the government.

If you let those, they would bring slavery back if they could. Since that improves their bottom line.

Dude everything you said is wrong... doctors don't have doctorates... PhDs do. Also you didn't invalidate my point, which is that trust isn't blind. You sound like a teenager. When you grow up you'll understand what accountability means and how governments have none.

An MD is literally a doctorate

In general, there are three categories of doctorate degrees that apply to the health professions: the professional doctorate, the clinical doctorate, and the research doctorate. In the science-based professional doctorate, the M.D. and D.O are the most well known.

So not only do you have no idea what you are talking about, you also fall back to ad hominem fallacies because you are unable to debunk the stuff I said.

Your knowledge is lacking, so your opinion on who you can trust is worthless.

You sound like a science-denying anti-vaxxer.

You sound like a teenager. We can talk after you finish high school.
