@arivas713 Find a cure for cancer and you'll know.

"As little as 80 000$"? that sounds like quite the salary. In Sweden a legitimised doctor with a special field has an entrance wage of maybe 30 000$, a country with higher taxes than the USA.

@Adrianajaramillo93 I never said that they don't deserve it just saying that 80 000 is a lot of money

@Daski69

would you spend 18 years studying medicine? most doctors get well paid.. others don't

i thinks thats too little, you have to pay insurance, higher taxes, education...

i dont know you tell me if they dont deserve it?

@mohio23 lol what's your point? all religions say the same

@Thejadjadjad Sorry, but that's incorrect actually. As a brain neurologist I make over 200 000 $ a year. Why? I'm highly educated, but I don't like to call my self smart because there are other people with the same amount of IQ as a goat. It's incoherent. Comprende. Oh, btw, I was kidding, I don't make that amount of money. Why? Because I'm not even a doctor. I'm a 15 year old male, sitting behind a HP Pavilion g (G7) series and evaluating comments. Yes, I'm on a horse.

[croissaintwithcheese]

@jgtheman84 The >8 years of education they go through isn't ultimately to be your friend. Get over yourself
