Maybe more talented Americans would become nurses if the pay met the demand.


We know that the US is not the only country with shortage in healthcare workers. Most countries with an ageing population face this.


We know that's not going to happen.

What now?


They pay $150k for a foreign nurse and attract the best foreign nurses instead of the cheapest.


Eventually robots. Seriously, automation can eventually do a lot to make each nurse way more productive than they are.
