Physician assistant vs chiropractic?

I know that these two fields do not correspond, as one is holistic vs medical science. I have gotten accepted into the DC program, but decided to only finish my Undergrad and NOT pursue my DC degree, telling myself that Modern medicine is the better way to go, people in this world want to get fast treatment, as patience is not a virtue much anymore. I have no problems against what chiropractors do at all, nor do I have problem with what MD's do, in my opinion, they both are in it for either the money produced and earned, or the idea of helping others feel better. I am a hybrid in this situation, I leaned away from DC B/c I do not like the business aspect, being extremely hard to succeed as a DC in this economy, thus running a business all at once and selling yourself constantly to pay back a $250K loan (IE miserable first 10 years). I felt as I wanted to still be in medicine, but making sure I had a secure position for the rest of my life, and not run in and out looking for patients to come by my practice. I would like some opinions, on whether chiropractic is the better way to go in today's world, or rather getting into modern medicine, in any particular sense or opinions you guys all have of it. which is really the better way to go, how can someone be successful in helping others, is it a mistake walking away from an already accepted program (DC) and possibly waiting few years to get accepted into school of medicine or PA programs, or is it actually a better choice to pursue medicine no matter how long it takes? any opinion will help...thanks.
