I’m actually not blaming it on Clinton, but I remember news stories in the ‘90’s about how bad it would be if there would be too doctors. As I recall, the feds somehow began paying medical schools to decrease the numbers of medical students.
Remember, also, how many medical schools opened in the ‘80’s and ‘90’s in the Caribbean and Central America because there were not enough openings in US medical schools.
I don't recall such (not saying there weren't...they just happened not to cross in front of my personal eyeballs). But I am experiencing the result of such. My personal physician (whom I have seen for 20 years) is slowly retiring, and the medical group he is part of is having hell replacing him. The US has TOO FEW physicians (hence all the "nurse practitioners and the like that are being used as "band-aids" for the lack).

That one I "do" remember...... :^).
