Pharmacists making six figures

Quote from misterno:

The reason pharmacists and nurses and doctors make so much money has nothing to do with the importance/contribution to the society.

The only reason they make so much money is because there are not so many of them around. This is not because people don't want to become pharmacists or nurses but because board of nurses and board of pharmacists has a powerful lobby in DC to prevent additional schools offering these programs. So they keep a tight lid on how many nurses should graduate. Therefore supply /demand is always tight within a percentage. That is why they make so much and never become unemployed.

I wonder why other professions did not start this mafia style control over DC.

I'm not sure that's really it, because drug sales reps get paid just as much and they are always hiring. What you speak of affects the medical field overall, not specifically targeted at pharmacists.

It the legal drug dealing industry which a very deep & sick agenda. So the dealers & pushers have to be paid well to keep doing what they are doing without questioning what is really going on.
 
Quote from clacy:

This is bullshit. I sell to doctors/surgeons for a living and I can tell you that these docs are actually UNDER compensated for how much they work and how much talent it takes to become a doc.

You might want to look up statistics on how many people are killed by doctors & pharma drugs due to bad diagnosis, mistakes & complications. And take note of the trend.

Most of these doctors care more about milking insurance for as long as they can, instead of helping people.
 
Quote from Cutten:

By sending the fleecers to jail for a long time, just like any other field of criminality?

Note that realtors are licensed too in the USA, so are banks and the securities industry. That worked well to protect the public, didn't it?

Regulations are a complete waste of time. Regulators never stop real problems that the public encounters, they only encumber both suppliers and customers with ludicrous regulations and a morass of red tape and extra costs, killing jobs and productivity and providing nothing of benefit.

The courts are sufficient regulation, as proven by their effect on the rates of murder, assault, rape etc. Jailing people for a long time for criminality is far better regulation than a bunch of clueless bureaucrats making up pointless rules about a field of activity they have no understanding of.
so when you go to court to send a snakeoil salesman to jail how do you prove he is fleecing people if you have no standards for testing efficacy other than testimonials? some impartial body of testing standards has to be in place.o
