Self-explanatory solution
Article on STAT website about the fast-increasing burnout among doctors and medical students. Offers a number of "solutions" which will only make things worse. All the "solutions" involve adding MORE WORK to the already overwhelming duties of doctors. Mandatory counseling, group sessions, keeping a journal, etc.
The CORRECT solution is to DO A WHOLE FUCKING BUNCH LESS. Remove the litigation burdens and electronic record-keeping burdens and the genocidal HIPAA ratshit. Those removals will improve EVERY FUCKING ASPECT OF MEDICINE INFINITELY and save thousands of lives, even aside from the burden on doctors!!!!!! Shorten the residency and eliminate the boot-camp aspects. Eliminate the four years of totally pointless academic shit that comes before practicum. Just start practicum on the first day of college.
The fact that these idiot "authorities" can't even imagine the DO LESS direction tells us exactly where the real problem is.
SIMPLIFY, SIMPLIFY, SIMPLIFY.
