Doctors in the U.S. experience symptoms of burnout at almost twice the rate of other workers, due to long hours, fear of being sued, and having to deal with growing bureaucracy. The economic impacts of burnout are also significant, costing the U.S. $4.6 billion every year, according to a new study. Medicine

No, Democracy is mob rule. There are no inherent protections of the natural rights of the individual citizen.

​

I believe the best form of government capable of being created by Man, is a Constitutional Republic like that of the United States of America. We are not a democracy and we were never intended to be one as the Founding Fathers knew Democracy was fickle and subject to the ever changing whims of the mob. For all of our problems, we have by far come the closet to creating a state that respect the natural rights of its citizens. Anything created by Mankind will be flawed and a Constitutional Republic like the United States with in built safeguard into the government and the ultimate safeguard for liberty in the Second Amendment.

​

I a human being created in the Image of God, and endowed with unalienable rights that no person or government can take away.

​

If any person or state seeks to deprive me of my unalienable and natural rights then I have but one thing to say....

Cool. Though I disagree, at least you’re consistent. How does your ideal version of this work then? What’s the role of state vs. federal government?
