Surgeons don't compete for board certification ..."
No they don’t compete, they just, 'pass'.
They are just like, Lawyers, Teachers, (and many etc’s)
They must ‘pass’ a base score to test their knowledge of the subject..
Some pass that, ’test’ with flying colors, and some pass by the skin of their teeth.
Their are, Surgeons who are so skilled, one would think everything they did, was a miracle.
And others, that don’t know how to fix a ‘hangnail’.
Their are, Lawyers that are absolutely stellar in their work.
And their are some, that can only move a piece of paper back and forth on a desk.
Their are teachers, (and I personally Know some), that have the ability to being out the absolute best in any student.
And their are some, that can’t find their Azz with both hands.
But Hey, they ALL, got, Participation Trophies/Ribbons/Board Certification.
Just thinking, if putting a cast on a broken arm, the, ’Score’ of the “board Certification’, makes no difference.
Yet if one were to have Heart Surgery, thinking one would look to someone that had a higher score.
(Even Bernie Sanders, and his Supporters would)
Just thinking, If you need Defense, for a Major Crime, Ya pick the Paper Pusher, or the Star ?
Which Teacher, YOU, wanting to teach, YOUR, kid ?
And to a degree, we ALL do that, Ask, find out, look to experience/results, Many different ways of selecting.
A painter moves into the neighborhood, they get some business. If they get more business, or less business, it all depends on their Skill at painting.
Yet to say:
‘Well that … is Board Certified, or has a Degree, so they know what they are doing’.Is WRONG. ! It is NOT, JUST, because.The ultra-Liberals, just pass out, ‘Participation trophies/ribbons’, because everyone is the Same !
And for some, that level of skill/qualification, is DIFFERENT, because of, …, …, …, …, …, etc.
