OMG, if this doesn't sound like the Soviet Union, I don't know what does..(sr) - you will receive free education provided by the "good, fair" government, and then we will determine what you can make in exchange of other favors.. this doesn't sound like a free country to me.. people who want to have a safety net and don't do much, go to Europe, people who want to succeed, work extra hard, come here.. I am sure Americansdoctors are much more productive than European, just like the rest of the American population.. no doctor in their right mind will put in so much extra-hours like they do in the US for this kind of "salary".. and we, the public, will suffer as a result..:-|
