Letter: Doctors should strike
(Rick Egan | Tribune file photo) The Sorenson Patient Tower of Intermountain Medical Center in Murray, Friday, Sept. 28, 2007.
I read with some consternation that salaries are being cut for some health care providers by the parasitic excrescence called Intermountain Healthcare.
Doctors, nurses, PAs, MAs, you should be getting hazard pay and a bonus on top of that. Should you decide to organize and strike (and I really think you should), I swear by everything that is holy that I will not cross your picket line, and I will be available for any auxiliary activities you may deem necessary.
