Why Are American Doctors Paid So Damn Much?

[woo me with science]

100. No, it is a matter of your deliberately missing the point of the argument.

The problem is not that some people "make more money than 99 percent of Americans." The problem is that a predatory group makes money FROM the 99 percent of Americans...from THEIR labor.

Doctors study hard, work hard, and provide a critical service. You are playing word games here. The "One Percent" is a handy shorthand term, but the real problem is a particular vulturous segment of the One Percent: the corporate Owner Class, that sucks profit from the labor of others.

Your whole argument here is a distraction from the real problem. The familiar propaganda tactic of the predator One Percent is ALWAYS to get workers fighting among ourselves and demanding lower pay for other groups that also work for a living.

The problem is not that any group of legitimate workers needs to be paid less. The problem is that we have a predator-owner-corporate class that sucks the profits from all of us, from OUR labor, when they, themselves, contribute nothing.
