This is completely beside the point. "For-profit healthcare" and "well-paid doctors" are distinct concepts. Doctors are still very well-paid in France, for instance. It's just that the hospital isn't expected to turn a profit. |

They are both economic benefits from providing a valued product or service. Saying that the one is evil while ignoring the other doesn't make any sense at all. It's the opposite of being beside the point.
Take the case of 2 doctors that have the same price list. One is better at doctoring and sees more patients. Because there is only the other doctor, their faster appointments represent a higher income than the other doctor. The second doctor still manages to provide competent care to all the patients they see, but they are capturing less economic benefit than Dr. Speedy. Is Dr. Speedy evil for charging the going rate?
