Of course, if ...Anon, good quote from the fireman. Of course, if I kept my mouth shut, it'd be a boring blog! <BR/><BR/>Reminds me of Point Break: "You know nothing. In fact, you know less than nothing. If you knew that you knew nothing, then that would be something, but you don't."<BR/><BR/>My point was we're a nation entitled and that includes our somewhat naive yearning, often at the student level, for universal health care, but we also want access at all times to everything. This is the standard reason people argue against universal care--wait times and rationing. We can't have it both ways, but I'm not totally convinced that nationalized health care is so evil.<BR/><BR/>On that point, my annoyance at drug-seekers has little, if anything, to do with the structure of care. You think there would be fewer drug-seekers or more based on what coverage they had? I don't think so, but, as you point out, I'm still a rookie, for sure. Talk to me in two or three years--or read about my slow transformation into a wizened curmudgeon. :)Tyrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06274875231456958701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050294586108344963.post-59706552103555997252008-05-12T19:12:00.000-05:002008-05-12T19:12:00.000-05:00You write about how the drug seekers irritated you...You write about how the drug seekers irritated you....and you still want an England style NHS???!?!?!? WTF<BR/>Oh thats right you are a gen xyz baby. You still haven't grown up. Shoot, and all those hours spent in the ER rotation didn't teach you anything? Or you didn't have your eyes open? I would suggest that you follow some sage advice I received from an old firefighter...."boy, the first year you keep your fucking mouth shut, and we'll let you get to your second year"<BR/>Have a great life doctoring them thar folks up.<BR/><BR/>SteveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050294586108344963.post-80345434422300736762008-05-08T18:41:00.000-05:002008-05-08T18:41:00.000-05:00Thanks!

A friend who is a 3rd year the other day was like, 'aren't you excited, you're almost done!' and my response was, 'sure, but a bit terrified, too...actually having 'MD' after my name...'Tyrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06274875231456958701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050294586108344963.post-2200479217942456382008-05-08T17:47:00.000-05:002008-05-08T17:47:00.000-05:00How true it is.Oh, by the way, I love your tag lin...How true it is.<BR/><BR/>Oh, by the way, I love your tag line, "I Matched!
