as Reagan sagely pointed out, with the ever-increasing role of government in healthcare, doctors will lose their personal liberty as well.

“First you decide that the doctor can have so many patients. They are equally divided among the various doctors by the government. But then the doctors aren’t equally divided geographically, so a doctor decides he wants to practice in one town and the government has to say to him, ‘You can’t live in that town, they already have enough doctors. You have to go someplace else.’ And from here it is only a short step to dictating where he will go.”

Yes. The "logical, rational" way to approach this is - Why have more doctors where there are already some? Let them go to where they are needed more.

That's serfdom. Anyone who thinks they can have serfdom for Doctors and freedom for everyone else, please raise your hand.
