Tuition for public medical schools in Texas is close to ~$18,000 a year but they still get paid very well. Doctor's get paid well because there is a shortage due to restrictive licensing, not because it's expensive to become a doctor. You're right that it is politically difficult. I just meant it was easy in that the solutions are obvious and don't require hard trade offs.
