I used to work in a state-run hospital, one of the best hospitals in the world, a leader in transplant surgery, advanced imaging, toxicology, and reconstructive surgery. It worked very closely with the CDC Zoonosis Center, another socialized system. The medical advantages you have were developed by the professionals in those socialized systems.
Don't make fun of those highly trained, highly qualified physicians. They're still bound by the Hippocratic oath, and they believe in it. If you ever need any exotic treatment, good luck getting it outside of a publicly run research hospital.
Movie theater attendant?! I think you owe both the doctors and the people who work in theaters an apology.
