2.1
Why is the president's salary such a prominent benchmark? Are you including all the perks and free rent that he is entitled to while in office? Or the free health care that he and his family will have for the rest of his life? Or the free transportation, food, entertainment, etc. that the president receives while in office? Or do you include the free secret service protection that he and his family is also entitled to for the rest of his days? Or perhaps you are also including the payment that he is entitled to for the rest of his life, whether he works another day or not? If so, then sure...cap everyone at this ENORMOUS salary. If not, then $250,000 a year really isn't that much.

They already do! They are paid relatively nothing for the ridiculous amount of hours put in for residency. If you had paid for 4 years of undergrad, followed by 4 years of med school, followed by 3 years of underpaid residency, you would want compensation to make that time worth the payoff too. Give the physicians a break...it's the insurance companies you should be attacking!

should the world wait till the god damn hardliners kill famillies in iran and then later on emboldened by the atomic power they will gain for sure, continue ravaging the rest of the world?? ha should it be the case? if yes, so sit and watch them kill iranian people then there will your time some day. that's nice from the us policies. at the time of Mossadeq the US launched the Coup and brought Shah back to power.Which means the US crushed democracy then at that stage,but now you hesitate saving people's lines in fear of being accused of interferring with the course of democracy? that's rich !!! I wish now it was George Bush the president of America. He would do something.
