There are lots of kids who want to be doctors but the slimey establishment(AMA) works to keep the supply low so the doctors wages remain high.

Here's why:

Controlling the supply

The marketplace doesn't determine how many doctors the nation has, as it does for engineers, pilots and other professions. The number of doctors is a political decision, heavily influenced by doctors themselves.

Congress controls the supply of physicians by how much federal funding it provides for medical residencies � the graduate training required of all doctors.
