MY doctor is a man that came back to his home town to practice and is probably supported 99% by less than scale insurance payments (that's a guess .. I really don't know)

Perhaps the black doctors went back to THEIR respective communities and rely on a barter system of food stamps and chickens .... ?

These kinds of stories are racist. It's probably due to where they work.

Why is the BRITISH Medical Journal studying US incomes? Did they study the incomes in the UK? If they did, the article didn’t state that. Odd. Wasn’t Obamacare going to fix everything?

So which would you rather go to?

A real doctor, or an affirmative action doctor?

I see they failed to factor in what country the blacks got their degree. But that wasn’t part of their objective.

As Bob Dylan said to a singer-songwriter who complained that no one wanted to listen to him,

“Maybe there’s a reason for that.”
