People talk about "healthcare" as if it's some fundamental right. It's the only fundamental right that requires somebody else's labor.
If you think you have a fundamental right to healthcare, especially *free* healthcare, you better start popping out the babies that are going to actually do the hard work of becoming competent doctors. And when they do, don't be surprised when they expect to be compensated royally for the insane amount of work they did that nobody else was willing to do. This is why socialized healthcare sucks, can't work, and makes societies sicker.
That's not to say that healthcare in the US couldn't be cheaper without the doctors making less. It absolutely could be, but the dems fly too high like icarus and want it to be literally free, which is totally unattainable.
