During an address at a meeting of the American Medical Association (AMA), Obama was booed for even suggesting the idea of reforming health care that may actually save money.
These people should be ashamed of themselves. Doctors, who have saved my life MANY a times in my short little life, should be ashamed to have the clowns at the AMA represent them in this manner.
These people swear an oath to care for all, no matter the cash the dump into their pocket. The doctors I have seen are the best of the best and they should be paid handsomely, but there's a line to be drawn where it gets so out of hand.
They know there needs to be reform, and they should have the cojones to do their part.
The majority of any cuts in compensation for services in this area should be hammered on the drug companies, but some of the elite of the elite doctors should also be willing to take a bit of a pay cut or retire.
You didn't get into medicine to make millions, and if you did...then you don't deserve to be a doctor anyways.
I am a teacher, and I don't do my craft for a giant load of cash. I love my job, and it can be a tough job. It would be nice to make more cash, but I am not looking for other employment because of it. Moreover, I am in support of a wage freeze that my school system has passed for the next school year to save money in our budget since we are so strapped.
Doctors of the AMA, I implore you to vocally support the changes Obama wants to make to the health industry. Yes, the health care industry as currently constructed works well for YOU, but what about those millions of Americans who are getting screwed by having no insurance or really crappy insurance?
We should be working together to kick the insurance companies' ass. Hello people!!
