I'm very happy to have landed in the Gulch…Thanks for the invitation. Its nice to find out that there are others who see things feel like I do. I have worked hard all of my life to achieve the level of success I have. Yet despite working 18 to 20 hrs a day, supporting 10+ other families with my small practice, missing out on many of my families celebrations, and sued at the drop of a hat ("nothing personal we just want your insurance $"). I have been made to feel as Ms Rand put it, it is perfectly ok for me to work myself to death for others but how dare I do it for me. More specifically "He's a rich Dr" (Although I am not and most aren't) as though I / we stole, robbed, or killed to achieve undeserved success. And watching the news daily one can be reminded of how the government machine creates more and more regulation to take as much as they can away form its citizens, and demonizes those voicing opposing opinions, all under the guize of protecting the public good. Amazing how paying attention to history Ms Rand in the 1940's saw the path Our Country was heading. I hope that enough of the right folks will recognize whats happening in our country before its too late and we wind up in AS III for real.

    Wow, great introduction. Welcome and you will find others who feel the same way about those regulations in any business... although yours has been horribly targeted. Well earned by the producer and stolen by big brother..

    Welcome to the Gulch. Through my line of work, I see how doctors get pissed on all of the time from all directions. The ones I know are all small-practice entrepreneurs. I overheard an employee of one saying she would sue him for firing her because "he has a lot of money, he won't miss it". It made me want to puke. Hopefully you find some refuge here.
