Most doctors are not salaried. They are not employees. If you want to see what sort of health care is provided by foreign doctors try going to a rural area in the US and see how many doctors are from India. Then try understanding the language they speak.</description></item><item><title>Who's in the best position to judge</title><link>http://www.slate.com/discuss/forums/thread/120793.aspx</link><pubDate>Wed, 11 Jul 2007 17:34:39 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8e55aff1-63ee-4857-a1e9-69fccb83d317:120793</guid><dc:creator>anticorp</dc:creator><slash:comments>1</slash:comments><comments>http://www.slate.com/discuss/forums/thread/120793.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.slate.com/discuss/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=2657&amp;PostID=120793</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;P&gt;Who is in the best position to judge the health care situation in the US?  A university professor who I'd bet dollars-to-doughnuts has never had difficulty with his own health insurance or maybe someone else?  As an economist, one would think the author would provide economic support or some other support for his value judgment that there is a problem with reducing physician salaries, instead of just accepting that as a fact.&lt;/P&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
