> the high bar to getting licensed ( med school and afterwards specialist training) is still the same for everyone
Oversupplying doctors will lower that bar one way or another. Medical schools are a bottleneck? Race them to the bottom. Fund hundreds of them so that it's always possible for any student to find one that'll accept them. Problem solved. Now the medical licensing process has become the bottleneck. Millions will be spent on lobbying in order to subvert it via whatever means. Once that's done, medical specialization will turn into the bottleneck. Repeat.
No system retains its integrity when you inject billions into it via loans. And that's just financial interests. Factor in the fact reelections of politicians might very well ride on their providence of more doctors to the population. Just look at the post I replied to:

That's the sort of populism that could very well decide elections. Politicians do not give a shit about anything other than reelection, least of all the quality of the doctors their voters are getting. They will always be able to afford the best care.
Realize that it's against my interests to warn citizens of developed nations about this. If I were a socipathic person, I would be praising their openness since it could facilitate my own immigration into their countries. I genuinely don't want to watch other people suffer the same fate.
