Reply to comment by Crombienator in CT residents would see billions in medical debt erased under Lamont plan: 'It's the right thing to do' by savings2015
I’m not sure how many people go into the medical field solely for financial gain… I would hope medical professionals are there cause they want to help people first and foremost. If this dissuades people from that line of work because, the government steps in and says, hey you really shouldn’t be making people go into debt for the rest of their lives, over circumstances that often are outside of their control just because you can.. well then fuck fuck those people. What’s even the point to having a Hippocratic Oath, if you are going to put a financial barrier between you and your patients. Now understand, I’m all for medical professionals being well paid.. but we pay stupid amounts for our healthcare in this country that a multitude of our other peer nations don’t, and there are huge factors to that, mainly how we pay for our healthcare.

The best doctors in the world aren’t gonna work 60 hours a week for cheese. Can’t they care, and want to make a good living for there time and investment?

With all respect to teachers. These two not even in the same stratosphere for comparison.
