So he got 60% plan on practicing .

Yeah , so 40 , he's no , so he says that 40% . Basically he's saying 40% . Don't plan on practicing and that's the number one reason why there's a shortage .

At what point are they not planning on practicing ? Are they not planning on practicing when they're pre-med ? Are they not planning on practicing once they get into med school ? Like are medical schools asking pre-med students do you plan to practice ? And 40 percent are like no , and they're admitting them anyway . Where is he getting this statistic ?

I'd love to hear it . Interesting is the next thing he doubled down on it and said it should be mandated that , unless disabled , each medical school graduate should have to practice medicine full-time for 15 years minimum to refund the federal government for the cost of tuition you mean pay their student loans back .

Somebody got a free ride to school because maybe mommy and daddy paid . I don't know . Maybe that's the only reason that I can explain Like that's the only way I can explain that you don't that he doesn't understand how federal funds might work . You sure he doesn't understand .

You'd be surprised . I looked him up . He was at I think it was medical school , at Big East Brody School , whatever it is . He's a urologist up until 2017 and I think he started doing some non-profit work or for-profit work and then obviously now he's a congressman . But yo , some of this stuff has got me like he's part of the shortage problem ?

He's not . He should get to work what you're doing in Congress , dr Murphy , get to work .

Unless he's trying to say that he's already done his 15 years .

I don't care , because listen , what makes so 15 years is an arbitrary number , right ? What if we actually need all doctors to continue working for 25 years ? I'm proposing 25 years . Dr Murphy , what you got on that ? I think you should go back , leave Congress and go back to work . We need a lot of urologists . We got urology shortage .

So this obviously is problematic . Troll , troll , troll . I don't know where he's getting his statistics from . I don't know where he's getting his statistics from Because if you check Medscape , these numbers don't correlate with Medscape . They're for certain surveys , Satisfaction surveys or med school , what you plan on doing afterwards , type surveys .

I don't think . I think he has his own agenda right . Like listen , it's been nine days .

Technically he's not part of the . What do you call it ?

I'm just saying it don't got to be part of the cabinet , it just has to be administration driven . It has been nine days Nine Nine days , guys , of what ? Since inauguration ? It's been nine days since inauguration .

Since this administration has taken nine days , it's been the longest year of my life , I would say this I think someone who is someone who is as educated as he is someone who's a urologist . I just have a hard time believing that he truly believes this .

Just because he went to school doesn't mean he's educated .

I don't think he knows . How can you ? How can you ?

Just because you went to school don't mean you're educated .

But if you went to school don't mean you're educated . But if you went to medical school in the united states , what thought process would you ever like ? What part of going to medical school , applying to medical school , paying your loans or even someone paying your school tuition ? Would you think that some , like the federal government , is paying your just ?

because you went to medical school doesn't mean that you're actually educated , but this is what I'm saying that you were exposed to education .

It doesn't mean that you're actually educated .

But this is what I'm saying . It means that you were exposed to education . It doesn't mean that you were actually educated . Okay , because in order to be educated , then you have to say things that really warrant some merit of education behind it . I just wonder where he gets that .

I think he's being punitive on purpose . Of course he is . Yeah , I think he's being punitive on purpose . Of course he is . Yeah , I think he's like well , listen , if you don't practice for 15 years , then you have to . You know the penalty will be you have to pay back all these years in tuition , like .

But how many people are getting a free ride on the federal government to medical school , like , let's really talk about that . Is it a lot or a little ? I don't know . I don't know the federal government like outside of military folks . I don't think there are that many more people .

The second thing that I was thinking was is he talking about residency ?

No , but that's not tuition .

But then he specifically said tuition . So I'm like , well , what the hell is he talking about ? And that's when I was like , ah , he's just being punitive on purpose , right . That's part of this administration . Like we're going to be as punitive as possible , we're going to say things , we're going to force you . You won't even get down .

So it's disinformation on purpose , right ? Yeah , I agree that what he said doesn't actually make sense , but it doesn't matter , because what he needs is to rile people up so that the next thing that he says becomes the thing that he actually wants people to do , right ?

Actually , the government is getting a free ride on you . Essentially , the government gets a free ride on you .

Exactly .

You put down all the sweat equity . All they do is just guarantee the student loan With interest and then you pay back that student loan in full With interest . So the federal government makes mad money off of this .

Exactly , it's a money maker for them .

Right , federal government makes mad money off of this . It's money for them . Like I said , the only thing that I can think of is that you know , when it comes down to residency training , the whole Medicare system pays like half , and then the med school pays the other half for your education as a

But the way how you explained it , explain how residency works like in terms of because you work , yes , so right , it is illegal in the United States to be employed by somebody and not get paid for the work that you actually are doing . Residents are considered employees . They're not considered students . They're not getting money just for education , right ?

I'm nervous , though I'm real nervous . You should be nervous , because folks like this . When they start to put up , it's almost like this is like the canary in the coal mine , like is someone working on legislation Of course they are so that , like this , something like this happens ? I don , of course they are Some type of penalty .

I mean , listen , this is what people , I think , need to understand . Like you are at the whim of whatever administration , whatever leader comes about Right , and so the notion of you know well , you know , we just got to , we just got it .
