I have a few comments about the Healthcare/hospital "industry" . One of my daughters has worked as the nurse/PA for two I.D. Doctors for almost 15 years and I`ve gotten to know both of them well ... and also several Doctors who I go to Church with . If the Obama Socialist healthcare program goes into effect , most of these Doctors I know have said they will hang it up as they want nothing to do with the Government telling them how to run their practices . Yes , I know four Doctors aren`t representative of the whole country , but I have to believe there are enough that believe that way that there will be a shortage of Doctors in the near future . Looks like a PA who can do 80 to 85 % of what a Doctor can do is a possible alternative for those young enough to retrain .... but be advised , you will probably have the Government as your boss .
I also know some of the WalMarts are putting "clinics " in some of their stores now ..... and I`m not commenting on the quality of what you may or may not get there .... just making an observation .
Computers ? Yes ... anything technical , as most of the "schooling" today turns out people who have no technical training/education .... and if you do ... good for you !
