Report Shows 83% of Doctors Considering Quitting Because of Obamacare

I see the band is back together.

Funds for resident salaries are appropriated from Medicare. Do some research on Graduate Medical Education.

Medicare/GME also funds the staff/facilities at these training hospitals.

Liken it to baseball:

Medicare pays the AA ballpayer's salary, pays for the stadium, pays for the uniforms and grounds crew, lights, team manager... all so the ballplayer can hone his craft and be a major leaguer someday.

And then cry 85% of us are going to quit because of government involvement. Originally Posted by Submodo

Here's a major part of the analogy you forgot: If you are caught playing baseball without a license the govt is going to throw you in jail.

Obama is a Marxist with a grudge against America. His only motivation is to aquire power by any means necessary, that includes destroying the country. Then again, maybe he's just incredibly stupid. I think it's the former. Originally Posted by joe bloe

I can readily accept and appreciate the thought that Obama is a moron, a crook or what have you. I can accept that to be within the realm of possibilities..
Vast conspiring to cripple America intentionally. That's a little too far out there.

I realize your angry about a black guy being in office... But when you spout things like that as consistently as you do... It hurts the credibility of anything you post. Well hurts credibility with real independant thinkers .
Best of luck , joe

You're right again, CBJ7. There are a lot of similarities among UB's avatar, and Gnadfly's and JD's avatars. I can see it now. Thanks for pointing it out.
