Smart kids that want to get rich should be allowed to go into a field of luxury items(games,entertainment,engineering, design etc.) Medicine needs to be taken out of the goldigger's menu. It's that simple.
Then you'll be please to know that the average doctor only earns between $100-150K per year once out in practice and experienced (10-12 years post-graduation).

Medicine hasn't been a drawing ground for "smart kids that just want to get rich" for at least 20 years. That was long ago replaced by tech companies and Wall Street (finance).
