Are these really voting by their conscious or their wallet? we get the worst return on investment for our healthcare dollar than any country, yes there is good care but we way overpay for what we get, iuf these "doctors" want the status quot then they are part of the problem.

. . . and the government is the rest of the problem.
Many of the physicians are incompetent and their colleagues hide it. I would like to see that fixed, also.
My cousin's wife died when her doctor overdosed her on morphine. He sued and won but the doctor is still treating patients.
My wife almost died because of an incompetent doctor.
He is still practicing medicine.
20 years ago I almost died because a doctor prescribed 2 meds for me that cannot be taken together. Luckily a E.R. doctor realized what was wrong.
This happens on a daily basis and the medical community covers their butt.

because the free market has proven to be the best answer which is why NO developed country depends on a free market health system, it just doesn't work.

and examples like this show the danger of the republican health agenda of just limiting lawsuit awards, imagine how bad that would get if doctors had very little chance of being able to be sued. (which also has been tried already in texas and health premiums actually went up compared to other states)
