Ever hear of loser pays.....that's why they don't sue in Europe.
As for doctor's making money....well, you get what you pay for. If the public wants doctors to make less, then there will be fewer people willing to go to school 'til their 30's. Doctors are dedicated people, but expecting them to do something as stressful and important as making medical decisions and not make good money is ridiculous. We pay athletes far more for something of less value.

Are you sure about this?

I've been investigating in my own small way. I have French and German neighbors who have extensive experience working with and in both systems. I'm told the French system is better and cheaper - and that the doctors are more dedicated (probably because many are women who've gone into the profession for love of the work). The German system is much better for the poor, slightly worse for the rich, costly to the state, and painfully slow for everyone. A Freeper tells me the Dutch system is bare-bones and uncomfortable.

Many people tell me our system produces an awful lot of greedy incompetents.

I'm not in a position to verify any of this but I'm working on it.

No, there won't.

But what will happen is that those who do go will be less smart, less driven, more failure-tolerant, and more able to be molded into happy state workers.

This is happening already.
