That’s not what OP was saying. They were saying that physician salaries are a big part of the difference, which they are not.

- MichaelZuo 3y ago10% is a big chunk. Are you confused as to the meaning of 'big chunk'? It by no means implies a majority or even close to a majority. If you are confused about my previous comment, I added the 40% to 50% example to demonstrate the likely overall contribution of salaries to costs.
- CyberDildonics 3y agoNo one has ever seen "big chunk" and thought 10%
- MichaelZuo 3y ago'No one'... according to yourself? This appears to be a random pseudonym account so it's unproductive to phrase it in this way, because it requires a lot more credibility to back it up. A simple counterexample: I clearly think 10% is fine, and I've met at least a few dozen people who share a similar view. Which suggests it's a common enough sentiment among HN readers.

- MichaelZuo 3y agoIf the link has something to add to your argument, can you quote the specific section? It appears to reinforce my point, in that it never defines 'large chunk' to have any specific range of values. Certainly not anywhere near a majority. > Like who? Some of the human individuals I've met and talked with throughout life.
- CyberDildonics 3y agoAll of the human individuals I've met and talked with throughout life think both "BIG CHUNK" and "LARGE CHUNK" mean more than 10%.
- MichaelZuo 3y ago> All of the human individuals I've met and talked with throughout life think both "BIG CHUNK" and "LARGE CHUNK" mean more than 10%. This seems like ignoring the question, so the opinion is noted, but it doesn't sound convincing. I still stand by my belief.
- CyberDildonics 3y agoI still stand by my belief even harder.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoSure.

- cycrutchfield 3y agoNever seen somebody so aggressively wrong. Just take the L and move on, my dude. Surely you have better things to do than to try to boost your ego by “winning” internet arguments through sheer volume of responses.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoThere's almost no difference after 'winning' or 'losing', other than extra word count on HN. So if this bothers you so much, asking me seems pointless. Maybe try asking yourself?
- cycrutchfield 3y agoYou’re the one going in circles chasing your tail. Maybe try asking yourself what you’re doing with your life.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoIf this is indeed 'going in circles chasing your tail', then why do your opinions in this comment chain matter at all?
- cycrutchfield 3y agoYou couldn’t resist the temptation to reply, could you? Go outside and touch some grass.
- MichaelZuo 3y ago> If this is indeed 'going in circles chasing your tail', then why do your opinions in this comment chain matter at all? Is there some rationale behind the seemingly incredible agitation, and bizarre attempts at deflecting direct questions? Otherwise this just seems like a self-parody.
