A couple recent articles on TheAttachedFamily.com, "Rates of Unnecessary Childbirth Interventions is Alarming, Says Lamaze International" and "The Rising Rate of Caesarean Sections in the U.S.," both in the Pregnancy & Birth section (http://theattachedfamily.com/membersonly/?p=1384 and http://theattachedfamily.com/membersonly/?p=158) discusses the rising, unchecked use of medical interventions for labor and childbirth, including Cesarean sections.

What do you think the reasons are for this?
