This is a little different. Whereas executives might not have any requirement on education or performance, in the US at least you’ve got 6 years education And 2 years residency to become an MD. It is still crazy money considering I’ve got 11 years in a PhD with an actual contribution to a field, but not insane compared to a 4 year degree or less.
Comment on how do I accept that a doctor earns more than double what I do?

How does anyone accept executives making 100x or more the salary of everyone else?

Okay that’s different
A MD with 7+ years of education and loads of debt earning more than a nurse with far less education and debt is fair.
An exec with barely any education, debt or importance earning 10× or more what the actual workers do is not fair.
I don’t deal with that, but I also can’t fix it without unwrenching the fabric of our society and I’m going to need a lot more people for that.

Steady on. You’re starting to sound like a dirty communist. ;)

You know what? Maybe some sprinkles of communism in our capitalism aren’t all that bad, anymore.
