Kaiser also is under construction for a medical school that will be opening in Pasadena this summer. It's great to see the investment they're making in the state.

Instead of paying hundreds of billions in healthcare subsidies, Obamacare should've paid to teach millions of new cheap doctors.

There’s a good idea: cheap doctors ... no reason to have high standards of entrance and accomplishment in medicine!

Or hell, we could’ve used that subsidies money to send everyone to third-world countries to be treated by jungle folk doctors eh?

I get good dental service in Tijuana.
My Mexican doctor stays with me for 1 hour, cleans teeth or fixes fillings.
A couple implants for $1,500 each done by her and her surgeon are still good.

An expensive American dentist comes to me for 2 minutes. All teeth cleaning is done by his assistant without any doctor's diploma.

When I go to Kaiser with an appointment, I wait for 30-60 minutes, then 15 minutes in a room. A doctor comes, asks a few questions and leaves in 5 minutes. My company pays him $500 per month.

Yes. Tijuana dental is often fine.

Now then, do you equate good teeth cleaning and brain surgery?
