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.


Your lack of understanding and intelligence never ceases to amaze. You
must be one of Loogie's many fathers.

Really? What is the value of your average GP MD type to the world? He
does nothing more than pass out pills and referrals.

The practice of medicine is still as much a guessing game as it is a
science. Hell 200 years ago they were bleeding people to make them
better! Anti-biotics hadn't been fully understood until about 60 years
ago. They still don't really know how the brain works. Chemical
reactions in the body? Have you read some of the package inserts for
some medicines? They can't tell you why it works but they can tell you
what you are putting into your body and what happens to your body after
it metabolizes what you just ingested.

You shouldn't place MDs on such high pedestals.
