Sorry if that means my ENT can only have 2 deer camps instead of 3. (This is a literal example btw)
It's not a literal example. Under single payor, physician compensation would probably be halved (or somewhere in that neighborhood).
I prefer that we pay our own way in healthcare. Government is enormously inefficient at making these choices in the macro.

It would definitely be a significant decrease, of course there's a decent argument to be made that part of the reason Medical salaries are so high is that the AMA amd other artifically suppress the number of qualified doctors entering the marketplace and that the salaries need to be high because of the absurdly high cost of medical school (German physicians make less than their American counterparts but also gradiate with exponentially less medical school debt so the wage gap only ends up being a net increase after a decade or more).
