Resolved:

Established medical doctors make between $200,000 and $250,000 a year on average.

Experienced information technology professionals make between $60,000 and $80,000 a year on average.

Life and death.

Medical professionals hopefully will save our lives. IT (Information Technology) professionals aren't expected to.

Hopes and expectations notwithstanding, information technologists save more lives than doctors.

Why are medical professionals paid more than information technology professionals?

Why are medical professionals credited more with reducing suffering?

Information technology provides more toward positive human health outcomes than medicine.

Why not reward information technologists better than medical doctors?

Constitutional amendment.

President of US makes 100 times the poverty rate.

No one may be compensated more than the President of the US.

I'm suddenly wondering what others here think about home ownership. I can't remember this topic being discussed here, except to criticize Bu$hCo's propoganda abouut the virtues of an ownership society. I think it's hard to believe, but I wonder about "our" feelings about the concept. Is it better to own a home than to rent? If it's a ridiculous question, sincere apology. Owning a home of one's own is still a part of the American Dream, yes?
