It's astounding that the KoolAider's...the same folks who will unionize and strike at the drop of a hat over THEIR wages...think that medicine is an altruistic pursuit populated by the equivalent of clergy. Wrong! A physician is a service provider who, like anyone else, is trying to maximize the return on their time and effort investment. Certainly any physician holds great sway over the life and well-being of his clients and patients. But so does an airline pilot, a bus driver or anyone else who is responsible for the well-being and welfare of others during the execution of their job. So why do the Progressives and liberals think that doctors are different? Because in the 'pretendy' world of liberal ideology, doctors are just a means to an end. Liberals can't make their ideological madness work unless they make people malleable. We have seen that we are all malleable when it comes to taxes...so doctors are malleable when it comes to how much they may be expected to earn for their valuable service. They are being converted without their assent to useful idiots for the cause. Except they're not idiots! So, doctors are given few choices to buck the system. They can settle for less income and a greater workload as a concession to the Progressive loonies, and the edification of their "Grand Leaders" or doctors can think about their well being and skip out. By and large, doctors are smart people and I can't imagine many settling for the former and not defaulting for the latter...or for engaging in the only vestige of capitalism remaining for them...concierge medicine. The Constitution doesn't say that everyone except doctors have freedom and liberty. So long as doctors have the freedom to exit the onerous, humiliating system that is Obamacare, I believe they will take that opportunity. And if our collective national health suffers, too bad!
