Why is everybody so angry at doctors?

Edwin Leap tries to make sense of it:

No one bats an eye at television shows about rappers or athletes and their elaborate homes, or extensive car collections.

But doctors! Oh my! One reader commented on my column on free care with a very annoyed letter to the editor, ranting about doctors and their six figure salaries. But what about seven figure salaries of football players? What about the six figure salaries of contractors, brokers, owners of car dealerships, plumbers, researchers or academics? Are they inherently evil?
