Sure will. As well as performance, production, and innovation.

Perhaps, but doctor's pay went down, big time, when they, like us, became blue collar workers. That of course was when the insurance companies took over the medical profession and started to dictate to doctors how much they could charge for each and every procedure. Don't believe me? Ask any MD you know. The only doctors who are not suffering with this reduced pay are the guys who practice the form of medicine which the insurance companies refer to as "elective surgery, or elective procedures", in other words, procedures or surgeries which are not, in any way, covered by insurance, such as: breast implants; penal enlargements (for Mayday); knee and hip replacements; etc, etc.

So will their pay go down? Perhaps, but we'll just have to wait and see.

OK, I gotta be the spelling police on this, since it refers to enlarging a prison colony. Did you mean "penile?"

You do realize the biggest insurance company out there is uncle sugar. Without the example of medicare blue cross wouldn't be in the position to dictate squat.
