I don’t think doctors are compensated nearly enough for what they do, how many years they have to go to school, and the responsibilities they have. If government would just butt out and let the market work, then doctors and patients would be better off.

No, I am not buttering you up just because you are a doctor... unless you live close to me. ;-)

We would all be better off if the government would butt out. What most people don’t realize is thanks to Medicare and Medicaid we only collect about 30% of what we bill. Try going into Home Depot and ordering a house full of carpet and telling them you will pay 30% of what they bill. Won’t go over so well....
