why doesnt the government just tax the shit out of alternative medicine businesses?

[MysteriousWeeb420]

it's the biggest win-win imaginable. either

a) the government gets a shit ton of easy revenue 

b) all of the scams fuck off and stop preying on gullible people 

c) mix of both

people turn to alternative medicine when conventional medicine fails them

steve mcqueen spent something like a million dollars trying to treat his mesothelioma

i don't have thoughts about it either way, but it's something only extremely desperate people do, so why not let them?

I've wondered this many times when younger. I think the Vatican is just too OP and many politicians are religious themselves so they can't do anything
