The real unions are made of employees, not employers, and they don't hold people's lives to ransom.

Thanks for posting Phil Ochs! His father was a doctor. But this is about greed. Check out my tribute to Phil, my Broadside Balladeer playlist here, and my interview with Phil at w w w dot no more songs dot org Vic

So how is the AMA different than the unions that his other songs like Joe Hill praise?

A great song, so true back then and still very prophetic today. American medical "care" is a sick, sad, ultra-expensive joke.

Who is decreeing that doctors would get higher pay in this song? The AMA? How? They have no power. The government? That's not free enterprise. That's fascism, and we should be against it, but don't call that free enterprise.
