美国搞成培养一个医生搞的比登天都难,只有顶尖人物才能做的局面,不是因为做医生需要顶尖智商,是因为在美国做医生赚大钱而且永远不失业,所以最顶尖的人抢着去做。
就像今天有众多的美国人在无数的选举被stolen的谎言下真的相信民主党在选举里大规模作弊一样,很多美国人在政客舆论对公共医保长年的无数攻击下,真的相信私营医保比公共医保好。看看下面里根在60年代对medicare的攻击。虽然历史早就证明他完全是错的,但他还是被共和党不知羞耻地吹捧为圣人,根本不管他的政策损害了多少普通人的生活。
In the early 1960s, Ronald Reagan, then a fading actor transitioning into politics, delivered a speech for the American Medical Association in which he warned that if Democrats passed an early version of Medicare for the elderly, “one of these days you and I are going to spend our sunset years telling our children, and our children’s children, what it once was like in America when men were free.”
