You fail to see the technique called incrementalism or fabianism.
The way to push through an agenda is to start with a very tiny law that get slowly expanded. Just like we started off with bag checks at the airport aand has moved on to child molestation and is now spreading from the airports to the bus stops random highway checkpoints subways, even school proms.
the point is that they need to start somewhere when bringing in this anti alternative healing sentiment and the best place to start cracking down is clearly the crazy faith healers and blatantly phony herbalists (i think almost all herbal remedies are phony they never helped me) we see in this article and they will slowly expand the reach of the prosecution into people such as ourselves.
if they started with us they wouldnt get away with it. If they make their way to us incrementally, nobody will even notice, like the frog slowly being boiled by incremental tempurature rising rather than the frog who jumps out of the water that boils too quickly.
