   There's more doctors per capita in the US than in Canada, the UK, New   
   Zealand, Japan, etc. and there's no suffering from lack of medical care in   
   those countries. In fact, there's a longer life expectancy and less infant   
   mortality. The US doesn't need more doctors, it needs fewer drive-throughs.
