www.thebusinessofbeingborn.com Birth: it’s a miracle. A rite of passage. A natural part of life. But more than anything, birth is a business. Compelled to find answers after a disappointing birth experience with her first child, actress Ricki Lake recruits filmmaker Abby Epstein to examine and question the way American women have babies. The film interlaces intimate birth stories with surprising historical, political and scientific insights and shocking statistics about the current maternity …
Would you agree that instead we should let the free-market decide the fate of the health care system, like Ron Paul advocates? joust wondering.
Healthcare is owned by pharmaceutical companies that’s how hospitals get there money.
That’s how you stonewall any real “health” or “care” say: If you don’t do as we say and buy into our colleges and our rules and our insurances corporations and our drugs then you will not be a doctor “professionally” I understand exactly what you are saying CordsZ.
Not all of them do, and many are opposed to the sanctions placed on them by insurance companies and corporate hospitals. But if they do not play those games, they aren’t licensed by the state board to practice and they won’t receive liability insurance, which is also a requirement to practice medicine. Same goes for nurses etc. They also won’t be hired to work in a facility, and the stand up costs for a practice are horrendous.
Well that’s just dumb. We need healthcare providers and medicines and trauma care etc. We’d all be dead at 30 just like in the Middle Ages without those things. Healthcare needs to be returned to the practitioners though, and taken away from special interest groups and business types.
Just don’t become a doctor and therefore support it? Duh?
I agree 100%
Unfair to, “roll up doctors in this , , ,?” They roll over like trained dogs for big pharma and insurance companies. Remember “fee-for-service” medicine? It was much less intrusive and a more collaborative effort. Oh yeah, it was cheaper, too.
I think it’s a bit unfair to roll the doctors and nurses up in this. While doctors (for the most part) favor more medical v. holistic intervention, it’s the corporations behind the hospitals and the insurance companies that force the medical field to churn out babies like licence plates at a factory. Medical personnel hate it as much as the patients and advocates, if not more. We all need to get together to get the businessmen back OUT of healthcare!
This is my favourite movie! DH was supportive of me wanting an unassisted childbirth, but after watching the video he was ectastic about it.
Great video!
Check out the ‘Childbirth Information Network’ and the ‘Vaccination Information Network’ pages on facebook.
wow im expecting and felt abit freaked out. its my first. i watched a few videos of births and they way some doctors and nurses pull the baby out ud think they would dislocate the head form the neck. i jst watched this and i am alot calmer about it and am now excited to experience child birth, which so many are unable to
My wife and I loved this video!
truly the inspiration of my birth experience. wonderful!
they control people with fear, once you scare a person they become your tool for whatever u say. its not only with births but also with vaccinations,cancer treatment,etc. they put the idea in your head that if u dont do as they say,you will die,become sick,etc.behind close doors the same doctors tellin u what to do wouldnt say the same thing to their family members. its all about money,diseases are man-made cuz its a lifelong business
I really liked your video and your channel. If you need any help getting this video or channel exposed I use a site called tubeviews.(net) It has really helped like 20 of my main videos get to the top in position. Its nice.
I like what i watched.
this movie really inspired us and changed our birthing experience! I will never have a child in a traditional hospital setting as long as I’m in good health!
Got into this subject through Ron Paul, which may sound odd! But this is essentially non-intervention applied to human health. Why intervene when it’s natural! Beautiful film—will open your eyes.
This a great documentary on home birthing… very eye opening!
I just saw this movie on Netflix Instant Play
It was amazing!!! A MUST SEE!!!!!
Oh my GOD!
I loved this film. It was incredible, every woman who wants to have kids must watch it. It’s so good i cried

Wow, good luck. You can do it, your body knows what it’s doing. Just have faith in yourself and don’t listen to the naysayers. People are just afraid.
