"If you are going to have doctors you had better have doctors well off; just as
if you are going to have a landlord you had better have a rich landlord.
Taking all the rounds of professions and occupations, you will find that every
man is the worse for being poor; and the doctor is a specially dangerous man
when poor."
-- George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950), "The Socialist Criticism
-- of the Medical Profession"
