My wife, a practicing surgeon, refuses to work as a wage slave.
She already performs a significant amount of her practice as "charity care" where she gets no reimbursement whatsoever.

Please don't assign false morality to the compensation people expect when their working career is effectively halved due to their extensive training requirements, and their educational bills dwarf by comparison every other profession.
The US already subsidizes medical research and bigpharma profits for the entire planet. We're not the freeloaders you're making us out to be.
