Intresting to know the direction of the affiliation to SML.
It is a money issue involving SML.
They may be smart people, their ethics I find unacceptable.
Yes I would like the people at SML.
It's the people in charge I have a problem with.
I do agree, that we disagree, on SML and their motives.
I don't think the way older labs opertate is really in line with the original owners. I have seen this behavior in the electronics busniess as well.
Still, there needs to be patient disclosure of this practice, as it stands today.

Something interesting today on CNN. A woman had a disk in her back replaced at the advice of her doctor. His advice was very positive concerning the device. It did no good. She required a second surgery to correct the first.
Turns out her doctor ic financialy attached the maker of the disc.
Not the same as orthodontics. But an interesting comparison.
Money becomes a motivator. Ethical because it's legal.
They are in court over the matter.
What you want to bet they settle??? Out of court, no wrong doing admitted maybe??
There are a lot of worthless law suits that are easier(less expensive) to just pay than go to trial. For some, this may seem like one of those. To me, it doesn't.
Edit:
For financial planning and how the boys can put themselves through school. Also for your employees financial planning.
