@drake_koefoed @Escoffier @sickburnbro @CrustyB I want doctors to be relatively wealthy - like they were, when we had the best health-care in the world. I want the best and brightest to become docs vs some other high-paying profession. It wasn't doc's salaries which created this problem.

We were not short on hospitals in those days, because the non-profit hospital org could easily get a bank-loan at very low interest to expand, if the need / business was unfilled in an area. There was very low-risk to the bank, of the loan going unpaid - because old people are going to need periodic "repair" - and a smaller % of younger folks.

Where a govt-financed system may be needed, is in primary-residence home-loans, as RFK-Jr has proposed. But, this cannot be based on Fed-Reserve money, to be paid back at a higher interest rate than the low-interest loan, thus becoming a tax-funded subsidy / ponzi-scheme.

I do not say this in aversion to going after the elite who used corrupt-practices to 'de-home-own' millions of Americans. I would fully-support a law to force Blackstone/Blackrock to sell their residential real-estate holdings back to those the banks foreclosed-upon post-2008-crash - and at the bargain-price the banks sold those homes to THEM (blackstone), but refused to offer the former-homeowners on a re-finance.
