Thanks to everyone for replying to this. I agree with a lot of what you all are saying. Americans get very little from their taxes comparatively in my OPINION. Clemson, SC is a small area of the south though ( Go Tigers, yes I like Clemson) and my cousin is studying engineering there. If you move to Germany (I assume they let people in) great! I have heard its beautiful, however, you will pay substantially higher taxes for your healthcare, but from what I have heard you get a lot for your taxes. As for the GOP and Bush bill on indigent care, you should know that docs do not see a single penny of that money, only the hospitals get that so your point on that is unclear in my mind (I inquired about that money and docs do not get a dime of it)
Your point on Doctors going into the practice for cash is well taken. The fact is most students entering go for that reason. The rest just lie about it. Most of the idealist docs (like pediatricians) go for the right reason as did I. That is why I want to go to rural area because the cities have more docs per population and healthcare is more readily available.
The school insurance I agree stinks, but you should have to pay it (I do). I moved a 450lb (200kg) unconscious woman onto a CT scanner by myself, and and ruptured a disc between the L3-L4 vertebrae. The co-pay and deductible cost me over $1200 and I didn't get an MRI! That was the equivalent to 1 month's groceries, rent, and electricity for me. However, I do not feel it is the responsibility of taxpayers to pay for an injury to me. I also did not file it under worker's compensation or other entity because no one forced me to go to medical school.
My salary suggestions although sound greedy are not meant to be that way, but many docs are changing their fields or changing careers because they can't run and office and should not have to work for hospitals because in the south, most physicians are in private practice. I also believe teachers should be paid like CEO's because my kindergarden and 1st grade teachers taught me the most important skills I use every single. Besides, very few professions (practically none) require the amount of time to complete the training as physicians, because even PhDs can get their degrees in 8-9 years after high school in many cases.

All are good points, and I appreciate the responses. Healthcare needs an overhaul. The government option is scary though because small businesses are going to just tell their employees to get their government insurance. The only reason in my mind to entertain it is because the CEO's and insurance industry have made more money in the last 40 years than any other business, and they continually seek ways to pay docs and hospitals less. Plus we all agree that there is a ridiculous amount of waste. We'll see where it goes, it can't get much worse.
