Med School Not What it Used to Be

Why would ANYONE go to Med School in this environment?

Our government is preparing to make good on a half-century-old promise to go social on the med profession.

A few reasons not to go to med school:

Doctors can never refuse care to you even if they can rest assured you will not pay them for their service.

They are NEVER allowed to make mistakes.

It takes a fortune to set up a practice that might land you in jail because after you perform some sort of simple surgery your foolish patient didn't take his antibiotics and change his bandage rendering said patient gangrenous and in need of amputation and a kidney-damaging bombardment of meds.

What if being a Chef held the same expectations as being an MD? You could never refuse someone service for unwillingness to pay meaning you have to feed everyone who walks in ... and feed them well lest you be held accountable for a substandard meal. If your customer isn't offered first priority over your other slave-driving customers somehow you are not doing your job. Wait, that sounds a lot like what people expect when going to a restaurant credit card in hand. Why do people expect to walk,crawl or be wheeled in to a medical facility for free?

Face it folks, on Med Care, entitlement is driving this without consideration for the insane amount of schooling, insuring and accountability that goes into being that guy or gal YOU insist make your life more comfortable if not downright save it from YOU.
