Why would any US grad want to become a PA?

Do 1 year of internship at 50% of a PA's pay, take step 3 and get an unrestricted medical license. Granted you would have to commute to rural areas to find a job....but you would still do far better than any PA.

I'm not saying any of them would. I was just posing the question since some posters stated that medical school graduates aren't qualified to hold a PA position.

The original question (which wasn't asked by me) was in reference to MDs/DOs who don't match.
