At least Mary is like, “healing the sick” through the money of her parents and her good education, maybe if we all had those same opportunities and if becoming a doctor didnt have a bunch of arbitrary hurdles set by already existing rich American doctors to get through we’d have more doctors and less doctor worship.

True the AMA is assumed to be good by most people since doctors but it’s kinda fucked

Yeah, that would be cool. Mary is no more or less guilty or innocent about that not being the case tho. And doctors have been held pretty high in cultural standing wayyyyyy before capitalism. Cause they heal the sick and being sick is a bummer.

Youre the one giving them that standing, its only a current feature in our society because we have fucked up laws in who and how many people can practice medicine in the US due to already rich american doctors not wanting competition.

Look into like, any civilization, ever, with few if any exceptions people practicing medicine are appreciated. It is socially reproductive labor. Once again, you’ve done as much to change these laws as Mary, so, how’s it relevant?
