[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m amazed at the number of people who think health insurance is the main problem, as if the hospitals just honest businessmen submitting bills for their services and the docs as well. The whole system is a sh&t show. Cardiologist in the US make like a half a million, in the Uk it’s like £150K.

People should be mad at their legislators for allowing it to get this way. This is not to say that insurers don’t have their problems but they are but one cog in the wheel of grift and dysfunction. [/quote]

You're right, but people don't see, nor are they are directly impacted, by the things doctors do to pad their reimbursements.[/quote]

Seriously? You’re complaining about a doctor earning $500K when they are actively saving lives and work 80 hours a week? You’re comparing their $500K to a CEO’s $10 million in earnings where they routinely deny people health coverage? [/quote]

No doctors work 80 hours a week. Come on.  Most barely work 35. [/quote]

DC’s school and friend group has mainly doctors’ kids. They are all millionaires who have multiple homes and/or travel abroad for every school break and long weekends. They fly first class for a family of five or six. They drive the most expensive cars in town.

I see them at sports practices and games and all the school functions. I don’t think they work 80 hours.[/quote]

Most kids in med school are the children of doctors. They already come from money and those are family homes in a trust. Money begets money. [/quote]

This is the likely scenario.[/quote]
