Nurses.
Watch nurses next time you're in hospital. They do 8 million things, unprompted, throughout their day. Robots would blow their power load and collapse if they had to do a tenth the things nurses do.
Have you tried firing all the nurses and just not giving anyone healthcare?
In the US, we just pay nurses shit and then treat them like shit. It's amazing we have any left.
I live in Canada and nurses make really good money, more than Canadian RNs, in several states. Like you can make over a hundred grand a year. That's not really bad at all for four years education.
Nurses absolutely deserve what they make but it is not really poor pay that is their biggest issue. More like an unsafe patient load.
