  • Are you planning on buying a car?

    Most people I know are not thinking about buying a car..so..if the automakers get these big loans...how are hey going to pay them back when people are just not buying cars like they used to? The economy overall and the job market is just too shakey for most people to make a big purchase like a car so where do they think they will get the sales from to repay the money? If they could not handle their affairs when everyone was buying jags and hummers and escalades..how do they feel they can did their way out now? Plus now they are asking for even more money than before. Plus what if the gov't says no..then what will they do?

  • If there is such a health professionals shortage won't the additonaal training to doctorate level?

    and student loan debt and time invested, deter some people from becomin ghealth professionals? Like I am sure there are some healht professionals that for example did not want to be an MD because of the many yearws of training and debt, but if you take for example PT or OT and make it a doctorat4e program like many are, won't that make undergrad students decide to go ahead and apply to med school in stead? Do PTs or OTs with a doctorate make as much as medical doctors

  • why do so many careers require doctorates now?

    It used to be that pharmacy was just a bachelors degree back in the 90s..now you need a doctorate. physical therapy was a bachelors degree program, now they have doctorate of physical therapy, audiology was bachelors/masters..now it'sw doctorate, nurse practitioner is soon to be doctorate, is this just a money making scam by the schools? I can't imagine technology or the material adevanceing that much in 10 years to require these to be doctorates. Thje only one i can see is perhaps pharmacy but, doctorate of physical therapy? and if you have a doctorate of physical therapy for example, are you paid more, or is the reimbursement any more than those who were already practicing with their bachelors who were grandfathered in?
