I went to a major medical university and studied humanities. The amount of soon-to-be doctors and nurses complaining about why they needed to study things like ethics, philosophy, or history astounded me, it's like these people didn't want to deal with the human aspect of medicine and instead just wanted to make money.
I wouldn't be shocked if more medschool students dropped out from the humanities courses than the medical ones, they hated it
Was this in 'murica?
Unsolicited petulance like this is why, instead of being empathetic about a situation we both share, I will never not laugh myself to tears as I watch the NHS deal with its massive backlog by killing brits via slowly privatizing.
You're like the weird kid on the playground, pulling our hair because you have a crush on us
Mate, nobody is crushing on the American healthcare system
