In other words, if doctors were guaranteed that, their careers wouldn't be affected in any way, and the only effects would be to the healthcare industry and to the economy and to patients, would the doctors and doctors to be, express as much concern as they are now?Your hypothetical is specious. Doctors are part of the healtchare industry.

Well, duh!
But, the question still remains.
Being part of a the bigger picture that is the healthcare industry, does not preclude the fact that, most doctors are in the field to look after themselves, and the industry is just part of "the work environment".
If Obamacare were to suddenly influence their industry in a negative way, but, not the doctors' practices, would doctors be as concerned about what Obamacare does to the country and economy and patients? IOW, if Obamacare promises to take care of doctors, and guarantees that they'll have a great rich and rewarding career, while Obamacare becomes the "health industry's replacement", would doctors, or at least most of them, be as concerned as many seem to be now?
