I think doctors should be paid enough so they don't need to worry about making ends meet. I don't want the guy operating me to worry where he'll sleep because the landlord kicked them out.

Same thing for delivery drivers, though. I want the delivery driver to make enough money so he'll actually drive up to my house and drop off the package, and not be distracted by money troubles while he drives past my kids biking on the street.

Every person deserves a livable wage, and there's no reason that people who start working earlier should struggle all their life to make ends meet, just so the better educated people get cheap deliveries.
