The US has 8 million highly trained foreign workers...and we're running out of doctors.

If that were true, there'd be no republicans.

The solution to the health care crisis is technology. Once we develop Dr. McCoy's Tricorder from Star Trek, problems solved. I imagine it would've been a combined MRI-PET scanner.

If you paid attention you'd ask youself why this is acceptable:






So please, explain to us how there is no racial preferences in medical school admissions. 50-60% parity between races for thousands of applicants is just what, a statistical anomoly? I love when people talk about things when the facts are staring them right there in the face. Of course you could always just look at that SCOTUS ruling that affirmed medical/law schools can for some silly reason. I guess some people get to be more "equal" then others.

I guess what your saying is that it is bad to be Asian and applying to medical school.
