Universal health care is great on the surface but underneath is filled with problems like doctor swapping (the overall lessening of personal services because doctors are so busy and often suffled) and the the overall disinterest in becoming a doctor due to the lack of pay

I don't think this is true. A Swedish doctor has about a third of the purchasing power of an American doctor, yet entry to medical school is more competitive here than in the US.

Hot chicks will still want doctors if they make less than they do now, and their mothers will want them to marry them.

I think it is more likely that you might end up with doctors working less hours if they are less paid, which could result in the need for more doctors, which could result in medical schools lowering acceptance standards... you know where I'm going with this.

On the other hand, if I;m in a major emergency, maybe having someone who couldn't quite get into medical school under the current system is better than having someone who has worked for 16 hours straight.
