Idea for a society: everyone gets paid the exact same no matter what they do. You just have to pick the thing you like to make it worth it (lemmy.world)

also the government regulates all job postings to not be (as) malignant and evil. you just upload your resume and go thru the available options and you pick one and then you go work there and if you fuck around they can kick your ass or something (but social etiquette dictates you should behave in good faith (because they all know how much the old way sucked))

I don't think I want to be operated on by a doctor getting paid the same amount as me after going to school 10 years longer.

I could see you going to get your PhD in, say, three years post-MD, you could get your law degree JD in three years - total is six. Then you get a Master’s in data science and then an MBA, and I think that puts you ten years of education beyond - well beyond - that of an MD.

The MD still might make more though.

Try again. Oh and you forgot residency. Anyway doctors don't get PhDs, nor JD's, nor MBAs ... And a Phd is usually 4 years college and then 3-6 more years. Pretty clear you making that all up. Boxer in a warehouse, same pay as doctor? 9.5 outta 10 gonna wanna know what you on.
