Speaking of government subsidized housing, If Mr Piece of Shit gets his way, those living in Sect 8 housing may have to move to living out in tents along the Creeper Trail.

There is a possibility section 8 housing helps landlords more than those who need affordable housing. There is also the possibility subsidized housing is part of the reason why rent prices continue to balloon due to extreme market place distortion. Entities that benefit from government money should be subject to price controls. Why should an anesthesiologist at a rural hospital be making $1 million a year?  Incompetence and greed is everywhere. It's not just Trump.

I don't believe any anesthesiologist makes 1 million a year.  Where the heck are we getting this misinformation?  And if it is a distortion, why are we echoing the spin?  Fabrications are making my ass want to suck a lemon!  I'm headed to the back porch to watch the movement of water in Little Back Creek; always expressing the truth, it never fails enlightening that water flows downhill.

My county might be an outlier for reasons that are incomprehensible, but I camped on a property owned by an anesthesiologist over 10 years ago.  Her subordinate who was a nurse anesthetist that organized the campout claimed she made in the 400s per year then.  My wife's cousin's daughter is a nurse anesthetist. She makes 450k per year. Her former superior reportedly made 1 mill a year.  She did get let go. Those are my sources. 

Adjunct professors at the community college are paid fast food wages.  It's really astounding.

Drug addiction, poor health, uneducated folk, societal sickness, debt is great business.

A healthy and educated population is a threat.

The most concrete salary data in your results comes from the University of Maryland listing for a Chair of Anesthesiology:

$650,000–$800,000 per year

That's a real posted range — not an estimate — and it lines up with what's known about academic medical leadership compensation.

Based on the posted $650k–$800k range and typical academic med‑center patterns:

$700,000–$900,000+
...is the true upper tier for anesthesiology department chairs at large institutions.

Some private systems with heavy clinical loads can exceed that, but those numbers aren't publicly posted.

The original discussion was about costs.

Everyone should ask questions.  Only those who are ok with being led to the slaughter don't.  Questions make people uncomfortable.  People do not learn or grow without being made uncomfortable.

I'm not the one bitching and complaining about affordability.  If you're inclined to do so, feast your eyes on this.


German pay

0 - 2 Years Experience. An Anesthesiologist in Germany that has less than two years of experience can expect to earn somewhere in the region of 73,120 EUR.
2 - 5 Years Experience. With two to five years of experience the average Anesthesiologist salary would increase to 97,260 EUR.
5 - 10 Years Experience. From five to ten years of experience as an Anesthesiologist, the average salary would be 148,300 EUR.
10 - 15 Years Experience. Once you have more than ten years of experience the average salary reaches around 175,900 EUR.
15 - 20 Years Experience. An Anesthesiologist with 15 to 20 years of experience can earn an average of 194,600 EUR.
20+ Years Experience. For an Anesthesiologist with more than 20 years, the expected average salary increases to 209,700 EUR.

Germany's low‑litigation, low‑tuition environment produces low financial pressure—and low pay.
 
The U.S. system loads physicians with legal risk and educational debt—and pays them accordingly.

So as far as affordability, we need to start with tort reform.

It's the opposite, but ok.

The cost of malpractice insurance isn't terrible given the compensation.

There are plenty of folks with high student debt loads that don't see much in the way of income. A research fellow with a PHD isn't catching any breaks.

At the end of the day Physician salaries are a minicule component healthcare expenditures.

Generally trends in physcian reimbursement has gone down annually despite nearly everything else costing more.

Google some charts of Phsycian salaries vs administrators.
Mind you they are the ONLY ones in a hospital system actually generating income. 

Google lifetime earnings compared to other professions.

Generally speaking, it is a very eat what you kill profession, the harder you work the more you can make limited by our most valuable assest: time.

Fortuanately open to all if you want to put the work in; and it is alot of work; plenty of easier ways to make 6 figures out there.
