      I mean, better is subjective. As far as cost and time goes, not many fields beat medicine. A lot of doctors can have up to 18 years of higher education and specialty training, and none of it is generally paid for like other graduate programs. And again working hours vary from field to field, but I know some er doctors who work 60-70 hours a week.

      Lastly my point wasn’t to whine about the pay, it was to illuminate that it isn’t the physicians or other healthcare providers that are primarily benifittting from increase of healthcare cost. If that’s what you took from the post, then you might just be projecting your feelings about your position in your own field.

        each of my postgraduate degrees is number one in my field, dude. y’all underestimate how much regurgitation you do in that 18 years of “higher” education. i have spent long enough educating MDs to know what dipshits y’all are.

          Your field has multiple “number one” post graduate degrees? Seems like that statement may conflict with itself.

          how much regurgitation you do in that 18 years of “higher” education

          It’s a linear education path, it’s not like you are going to have someone doing an orthopedic fellowship “regurgitate” information they learned in biochem.

          long enough educating MDs to know what dipshits y’all are.

          And I’m sure you won’t be willing to tell anyone what you taught these dipshit MD, or what your field of study is? Nothing what youve responded with gives me any confidence that you have any professional interaction with medicine.
