PandaBear's latest blog post got me thinking about socialized medicine. On the one hand, medical costs in the US are getting out of control and socialized medicine may be the answer.
On the other hand, socialized medicine might kill physician income and I am not thrilled about finishing residency with 250K in debt and a severely slashed income. I am not going into medicine for the money, but if I am going to go through all this work I'd at least like to live a comfortable lifestyle (support a family, college for the kids, etc).
So - what do you all think?
