Also there is a dark side to believing in such nonsense, its that most people who might spend a $100 a year for a placebo affect aren't the issue, its the people that put so much trust in these alternative med foo foo that they discount modern medicine and put themselves or worse, their children in the fate of snake oil salesmen.
This is faith healing gone wrong, but its still about putting faith over reason when it comes to healing, something that can and does go horribly wrong all over the world where people have strong beliefs in this junk.
