Another of the N reasons (where N is a very large number) why physicians are leaving the profession.

Just think of a doctor (superbly educated and a life-or-death decision maker) having to take orders from anyone in the Obamadork administration.

Recently had a conversation with my doc about ObamaCare.

Guy is very quiet. I've never talked to him beyond whatever medical stuff was immediately at hand. This is a guy who doesn't mince words or make smalltalk. He takes his job *very* seriously - and you better not get in between him and his patients. And, I'd never heard him to curse, though it didn't surprise me that he knew the tune and the melody. :-)

In short, he's darn good at his job, which is why I like him so much.

However, when "ObamaCare" came up at my last visit a few months back, he jumped all over me. "You didn't VOTE for that B******t did you!!??", he asked, very pointedly.

"No sir", I replied. "Good! Because people have no @%@%%ing Clue how out of control this montrosity is going to get!!" He went on in that vein for a good two minutes. Made it sound like ObamaCare, and BO personally, was going to drive the entire profession - at least locally - out of business. He ended with, "If things get bad enough, I'm going to quit and move out of the country!"

I walked out of his office a little bit shaken, but I can't blame him. I'd not want a gov't functionary dictating to me how to do my job. Especially in a life-or-death profession.

Libs have seriously miscalculated here, in assuming that smart, motivated people will continue to put up with their nonsense. If you're talented, intelligent, and have the financial means, why would you deal with idiocy, when you could move to (for instance) Costa Rica, do the same work for the same money, with no hassle?

/rant off. But I feel better now.
