The News Article About Foreign Doctors

     America is like a magnet for foreign doctors, due to the vast technoligcal advancments, high salaries, and more to work with than other countries. Each year, many doctors from foreign countires flock to the U.S. to find jobs. Many countries are in need of doctors, but all doctors love to work in the U.S. Why don't they go to places that are actual in real need of full fledged doctors? A vast majority of the countries on the world need better medical supplies, doctors, surgeons, hospitals, and other mediciation. Yet, as all people on the world wants money, they go to places where they can get more. Since the U.S. spends so much money each year on health care, it's like the U.S. is a gold mine for doctors. Yet some doctors such as the one in the linked page does actually want to return to their country to help the needy people. I think of that person as a hero, even though he went to the U.S. for a better life. Even though he did desert his country, he still wants to return, and just the thought of it, is better than some, who just came to the U.S. and will never even think of returning, even though his/her country needs them.

Aww... This is so sad... I think that doctors should be there to help people and make them feel better not for money... Wouldn't helping that person feel better make you the doctor feel better? People these days... :(
