Bigger threat to Florida than a Category 5 Hurricane

Based on what you are saying, there should be trade schools specifically for people who want to be doctors. Just like HVAC, Plumbers, Electricians, etc. I don't believe that. I think you need tough (non-related) courses to weed out people who aren't serious about getting where they are going.

Trade school to be a plumber or electrician would be an extreme example of what I'm talking about.
The number of things that we would both expect an MD to know is much bigger and takes more years than what we expect of an electrician or plumber.
And I never said that tough weed-out courses weren't warranted sometimes.
I just happen to think, when we have fewer doctors per capita than any European country, and a few Latin American countries, perhaps we have too many tough, non-related, weed-out courses. Supply is low, and kept low by ivory tower elites who don't care for patients. Perhaps that's why prices are high?

Just so I am clear, you are propsoing that we somehow lower the standard for people to become doctors because we have fewer doctors per capita than other countries?

Is it possible we just have less motivated people in our society today?
