Now, do I really think that this guy EARNED that much money? Nope --
not by a long shot.
He charged what the market would bear for his services -- that's how the
free market worked
For HIM it's a "free market' -- but the health care market is far from
free.
In a true free market, a department head wouldn't be paid such an
exorbitant sum. Our health care "system" (really a giant, entangled
mess of regulations and interlinked government programs) has distorted
the market to the point where this guy is paid primarily to fleece the
system -- not to help provide health care.
To truly appreciate how f*cked up our health care system is, you need
to note: The hospital this doctor works for is a NON-PROFIT
organization.
Think about it.
