25% of doctors in USA are foreign graduates whose education was paid for by other countries.
And we don't have the people that are citizens of this country that if given the chance, with proper qualifications and government provided or subsidised medical education, would not want these jobs?

I am not saying that foreign born, educated doctors and medical personnel are not welcome here, that is if they are able to meet our standards of care.

But in light of the current situation we have to ask ourselves: Are our people too dumb to be educated as doctors and healthcare workers? If so, we are really in a shitload of trouble.
