Until they are serious about changing the Doctor Salaries, then this will go nowhere. You can't pay a guy 300k-500k/year to get rich off sick people. You end up with very little care for your money, and that's what we have. Maybe they're rock star talents, or whatever. Special people etc. got to make their bling. O.K., BUT THEY ARE NOT DOING SOMETHING THAT OTHERS CAN'T DO. Go make it designing shoes or some other optional extra in life. Go!..get out of medicine...please...leave it. Start designing the ultimate cell phone that comes with optional blown-job add on...Whateva you need to do to get rich. That's the only way you'll be happy. Stop taking 300-500k out of the pool. You want to start solving this? Stop making it Lotto, and starting making it a well paid destination for the best nurses. Pay for the training of those who really love medicine. Let the smart kid goldiggers make their greedy way in another profession. This one is supposed to be serving sick people. Not serving you greedy bastards. Let all those greedy kids in college know that this is not their pot of gold. Go into a luxury item field, because medicine needs to change into a team sport, and stop being about rock stars getting rich off sick people. Simple as that. The AMA has to be defeated before you can solve this. Sick people are getting shorted so these people can play big pick 6 tickets, go to Italy, and get 1 more BMW. THAT'S ALL FINE STUFF TO DO IN A LUXURY ITEM FIELD OF WORK. YOU ARE NOT ROCK STARS, OR GIFTED ATHLETES. You're just making Lotto off sick people. That's not a luxury situation. You've tried to keep it A LUXURY ITEM. You need to be defeated. You must be defeated. You will be defeated, OR HEALTHCARE COSTS WILL NEVER BE CONTROLLED. It's beyond insane to keep saying they aren't the problem. Hello!! Hell fkn -oooo!!! 300k-500k a year into one person's hands? That's not ever gunna work. Keep trying. You'll just keep shorting patients to pay for Beemers.

also, I believe a gifted brain surgeon is way more talented than the A-rod's, Chase Utley's and Manny's of the world.

In fact I would be much happier to see a brain surgeon be paid 100 mill over 10 years and a baseball player be paid 300-500k to hit a freaking ball.

Its pretty disgusting how much athletes are paid. But my friend brought up a good point that if the athletes were not paid that much.. the owners would be making insane amounts of cash. Which made me think....

I think communities should "own" their sports teams, instead of one owner. Pay the players a LOT less (highest amount being able to make 750K per year) and give all the profits to the government, and then eliminate federal income taxes for people and have our sports teams pay for our taxes!
