What is the price to pay for taking the life of a 'bottom of his class'
young man? Who determines the value of a life? Who determines the
potential of that life.
Potential lifetime earnings.
Life is always precious and as sad as it may sound but the life of a
doctor is worth more to the jury than the life of someone who dropped
out of high school.
Bill Gates, a college dropout.
The CEO's of many of the Fortune 500 companies never graduated from
college, yet they earn more than just about every doctor on the face
of the earth.
Why would that matter to you? You're not going to be the CEO of anything
of consequence. And the fact that some CEO's earn more than physicians
only shows how sick out society is.
Why? A CEO employs more people than an MD. A does more good for society
than an MD. Bad CEOs are weaned out fairly quickly, however, the medical
profession protects bad MDs in an attempt to protect all MDs with the
thinking that if they can get the bad ones then they can get the good
ones too. Good old socialist thinking at its best.
