we are living in a world where a trucker today is offered less than
his fuel costs to deliver a load.. similar for many others, the
nation is is economic decline....can doctors retain their rates of
compensation (fully earned I grant that) as US engineers are out of
work or competing with russians and chinese at 2 dollars an hour?

no they cannot. and the govt coffers cant either... the entire mess
is headed south... the doctors among us in the end.
