Should the U.S. Maintain HealthCare as a For Profit System?

Thanks to everyone who has posted so far. Very interesting. I'm going to weigh in on the discussion to say that my intention of looking at the wage gap was not to say that doctors and nurses should make the same income. In my opinion, that goes without saying. What I was looking at is the fact that it is widely reported that the wage/income gap is widening between the rich and poor of this country. As a group, physicians tend to do very well in the income category and many are in the wealthy category. Nurses and allied health workers' income fall in the middle to low income category and many are struggling. Some of you have alluded to training and educational backgrounds as affecting the income. Some have also implied that physicians should be more valued than nurses. The subtitle of the question to consider is whether the U.S. should continue to place more value on physicians and high level health care executives and allow them to achieve a level of wealth that is off the charts compared to other health care workers? Can closing the income gap be achieved without a not-for profit health system?
