So how is he ever going to survive if he's not raking in over $400K a year anymore?How much do you think he should make?

Not just doctors. The hospital where my better half works, has worked for 35 years, is talking about a merger with the larger hospital in the closest big city, if that happens, he is out of a job, because the subcontract everything. From there it is a short time before they are closed. Our AG predicted community hospitals would be closing.

Your Doc’s PRACTICE may take in 400K/year. So what ? It’s not what your gross income is, but your net after expenses and taxes. I’m a senior engineer, and found out **I** make more, net of taxes, than my physician does. . .

I read the article and your comment that the doctor didn’t create any jobs and that this clinic was going to shut down. Didn’t you read it?

Those MDs were likely Zero voters.Not likely. The majority of doctors are relatively conservative.

Before the Health Bill was passed, my doctor told me Obama was great and not to listen Rush Limbaugh and the rest. The Health Bill would only affect those who didn't have any insurance. I told him I'd ask him again in a year what he thought of ObamaCare.
I haven't had another appointment yet. I'll ask him again about the great Health Care Bill, that is, if he is still in practice.

"The majority of doctors are relatively conservative" Please elucidate and cite.

So you’ve “seen the bills”? Wow, so did YOU pay market price, or anything at all, for your fancy device? As for the household budget of a cardiologist, that seems none of your business unless you are writing him a check for the full amount - then you might have a beef. Otherwise, what right do YOU have to comment on his budget? Compared to the overall bill, his take-home pay was probably not overly generous.
See how you like it when an EMT from Cuba needs to replace your jumper cables.

It’s written into the bill - schools who cater to AA will be rewarded and those who don’t will be less funded.

My doctor bought a home in Panama and is leaving here next year and going down there.

LEt me know when you no longer have a physician- unless you go the physician heal thyself route.

Not this MD either. But I figure I have about 3 years left to practice, until the worst of Obamacare hits. Then I’m out. I will not spend the last years of my career as a government employee.
