Ah, so you don't think anyone should be paid according to ability? I see. And you ironically mention being brain-dead? lolTheir pay is entirely subjective so why the brain dead comment?
Yeah, all of Canada's medical woes are because of physicians. uhuhDoctors control their own labour supply. End their labour supply monopoly, end their monopolization of patient records, and watch the costs of our "second most expensive system of 'health care' in teh world" drop to much more reasonable rates..
I'd trust my health to my kid, who is a nurse/practioner, or a competent pharmacologist over people like this, anyday:You will have the choice of cheaper services like nurse practitioners and they are not doctors and your life will be in their hands
