medicine and income

Three random thoughts on medicine and income floating in my brain:

1) I read somewhere today that the most equality-minded, least sexist, well-paying job for both sexes is that of a pharmacist...

2) I was recently told about a situation in which juicing (not smoking/getting high off of) marijuana was very cost-effective and did wonders to help someone suffering from lymphoma...

3) A few months back, I watched a woman at a city planning meeting give a passionate speech about new regulations for massage parlours, which included her describing situations in which she's able to help sick people with certain conditions who can't afford to regularly go to a doctor, and bursting into tears because she feels she's had to constantly defend herself for many years against insinuations that she was doing some kind of prostitution-related work...
