not picking on your wonderful daughter,
but she's 250k in the hole. 4 years of training under her belt. she is like many other doctors to be.
deeply in debt, several years invested in this career path, and her hope is that she'll like what she does long term, be good at it, and at some point break even and later show a profit on her account.
the above comment about who will pay sums it up.
someone always pays. if the service is priced out of the range of the common man, then the doctors and hospitals turn to the .gov to pay their large sums. but .gov payment comes with all manner of strings.
and every year, we repeat this process of getting young people deeply in debt, investing years of their life, in the hope that later it'll all work out somehow.
but since i'm just some dumb guy without an impressive resume, no one listens to me.
we've been treating 'mental illness' for how long, and we still have it? why? Dr. Salk fixed Polio long ago. done. it's over.
