IDK to tell you dude, people bitch when their current way of making money drys up. They also are probably right that the current system -- that pays way more for people with "good insurance" -- will allow them to make more money. So they are going to bitch and say "ill do x and y." hardly any of these people are going to get new careers at the end of the day.
People don't become doctors for money. I've seen people that want to be doctors for the social esteem and respect, but not for money. Most doctors that make a lot of money -- make their money from investments and clinics that they own. They have a high wage and all, but that's after what? 10 -16 years of school/training? And your not going to be getting any big bonuses...
If you have the kind of intelligence and support to become a doctor -- you could easily go into business, tech, or law and make more money. But most people that become doctors want to be doctors.

I much prefer the kinds of doctors that are in it for the esteem and respect but I also know that - at least in the NY/NJ/CT area - a lot of doctors are in it for the money. You should see the mansions some of these "top rated specialists" live in.
There's no easy answer here.
